Parents do not let your kids ride bulls

Some of you know I work at a large equestrian center with many different events. I thought I had seen it all last mini horse show. In the costume portion a lady painted black spots on three white mini horses and dressed herself up as Cruella De Vil. Nope' foward to the gay rodeo...goat dressing. I thought how strange they are skinning goats for prizes....Its really a competion where a team of two attempt to catch and put four articles of clothing on a goat.

Now for the kicker..Youth Bull Riding World Championship. Yup three to seventeen year olds riding bucking bulls( the three year old ride sheep they call it "mutton bustin"). Second day I counted five ambulances picking up hurt kids. Third day thirteen year old broke his neck and was paralyzed from the neck down. Day four met a fifteen year old kid who had his right hand pulled off by a bull when he was twelve. He was back competing left handed.

 

PETA was there to make sure the bulls where well cared for ...What about the F*%#ing kids??????
