Rodeo!

Hey, everyone! Two weeks ago we went to the N.P.B.R. Rodeo because it was coming through town. It was the finals! The top 45 bull riders in the N.P.B.R. were there. It was awsome! There were some REALLY good rides and some really bad ones where people only stayed on for a 1 or 2 seconds. There were painful looking ones and there were funny ones. I filmed one of the rides with our digital camera while we were there. Here it is:

They had really good home made beef jerky and old fashioned candy sticks. My mom, dad, and housekeeper are watching what they eat so when my dad and I came back from the concession stand to get some cotton candy and nachos, my mom and housekeeper were questioning him and asking him if he had munched down a cheeseburger on the way back. Of course, he said he didn't. Then he went off for about a half an hour on his own during the rodeo--who knows what he ate then...

In the middle of the rodeo when they took a break, they had a "calf cash grab" or something for all the kids under 12 so I joined in--or rather, my mom made me join. Turns out it was pretty fun! There was a ring tied on a calf's tail. There were three calves and probably anywhere from 50 to 90 kids. The goal was to grab the ring off the calf's tail and bring it to the rodeo clown. The winner would get cash. It was chaos! It was like a stampede! It was hard running in my Crocs because they don't grip like sneakers would and they don't like to stay on my feet. But, I was able to just touch the ring on the calf's tail then this Mexican kid grabbed it right off its tail and ran to the clown. He won. It was really fun except for the two times I got trampled. The first time, I ran over a kid then everyone tripped over us. The second time, someone stepped on the back of my Crocs and tripped me. After that, it was all down hill from there. I probably swallowed about a pound of dirt during that event.

Well, I have to log onto Roblox! Bye!
