LOL!  Got roped into doing that once when I was a kid.  This was before the 'Any physical activity for children requires protective gear.' phase of society.

I remember the chute opening, and I remember opening my eyes to a mouthful of dirt and the clown helping me up in the middle of the arena.  I have no recollection of what transpired in between.

Used to think I'd never had a concussion in my life.  Talked to a couple people who'd had several and I was like, 'Oh...  I... do know that feeling.'

Good times...

Wiley.

We started mutton bustin age 5/6 did that a season before grandpa would let us try the steers, the steer were a blast to ride not as scary as 2500lbs of bull with hells fury in his eyes bent on getting ya off his back .   I never even thought of riding one to dam scary for me and hats off to the cowboys that do, it takes gonads of steel to ride one and bigger than the bulls.
