Chinchilla Melon Rodeo
Went to the Rodeo – I’d say it was a success… full crowd, running to time, good action
44 open bull riders,
21 novice bulls,
9 junior bull,
20 barrel racers,
28 saddle broncs
The result for the night was :- Bulls and Broncs up and Cowboys down.
Stock provided by Campbell Frahm, Stuart Timms and Rick Knudsen had the crowd in awe (even Kimberley and Alistair from Creek to Coast) and the cowboys holding onto the seats of their pants. the Bull fighters were definitely getting plenty of exercise. It looked as if a couple of bulls were asking the question “DO YOU WANNA HAVE A GO! COME ON! YOU WANT SOME OF THIS? “ They showed who’s the boss!
Aaron Ryan as M.C. with his anecdotes, commentary and interaction with Organiser Danny Gleeson kept the crowd entertained. Volunteers were to the fore on the day too.
Danny Connolly took out the open bull ride.
Will try to catch up at Bell on the 27th. bye
