Rodeo

Dave and I were fortunate to attend the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo twice this year.  The first time we decided to buy some cheap $10 tickets to see Kid Rock.  It was a few weeks after Valentine's Day but we decided to celebrate then.  The day after the rodeo one of David's coworkers gave him some tickets to see ZZTop.  They were much better seats and we really enjoyed being twice as close as the last time.  Here are a few pictures of my favorite events at the rodeo.

 This is the wagon races.  I was quite impressed with the wagon drivers abilities to keep the wagons upright as the skidded around corners.

 This is the Calf Scramble.  High School FFA students chase down some calves and then wrestle them down, put a rope around the calf's head (bridle style) and bring it back the middle and they get a scholarship.

 Mutton Bustin.  Kids 5-6 are put on top of a sheep.  The sheep is let go and they see how well the kids can hang on.

Here's the best picture I got of ZZTop.  We were to far from Kid Rock to get any kind of decent picture.
