obviously you'll want to watch the rodeo - fun stuff - those guys are nuckin futs. some of the other stuff is pretty good too if you appreciate horses and what these people can do on one.
I was there yesterday!! And it was fun yeah
The parachutist did a good landing with the big flag.
And the horse/bull/buffalo/sheep riding was fun too.
The fireworks are awesome!!
But that cost me $25
I'm not sure whether they are wildlife colts or not but the horses and bulls were pretty wild. The riders fell down mostly within 4 seconds. One of them needed a stretcher to be carried out of the area.
The colts behave like crazy when they're released from the box (with the rider sitting on them).
After time out (if the rider has reached the minimum time (normally eight seconds) to stay on the back) or if he's down two riders remove the belt sqeezing the balls of the poor animal.
With that measure they also remove the hard pain from the horse.
The only Bronco I know of is a USAF airplane used for close air support.
Seriously I didn't see that happen. After the rider is down, another 2 riders will chase the horse back into the gate.
Did you mean they tighten the balls of the colt with belt for them to get mad?? That's animal abusing..
It is cruel, but not surprising, considering they castrate calves with no anesthesia all the time, and in some places still brand them. And obviously they kill them for food.

Good to know horses have no hands. They'd take off that belt and spank their torturers.
Controlling and holding horses is done with a device fitted in their mouths with leather strings on it. (sorry, don't know the english term, German: Trense + Zuegel).
which reminds me of an old joke:
an Ahmish man and his new wife walk up to the counter at a hotel. The man says "We're on our honeymoon, we'd like a room" the manager says "Wonderful! would you like the bridal?" to which the Ahmish man replies "No thanks, I'll just hold on to her hair till she gets used to it."
