Elensberg Rodeo

This summer i went to the Elensberg Rodeo. It was so windy i don't see how anyone can live there. But anyway we watched the Xtreme Bulls one night our seats were the second row back. It was kind of creepy when all the bulls ran right in front of us. All of the judges stand in the arena near where the bull is going crazy and if the bull ever comes near them their supposed to climb the arena wall, well one judge was standing in the arena and the bull was like a foot away and so he climbed up the wall a little ways but the bull decided he wasn't up high enough and rammed him in the butt and all most flipped him over the top of the railing. The rest of the rodeo he climbed all the way up the wall if a bull ever came near.
The next day we went to the broncos it wasn't as exciting as the bulls. The broncs never wanted to go back into the pen when they were done being ridden and it took like ten minutes in between each ride just waiting for the horses to leave. We know some people who work at the rodeo and i got to go see where they keep all the famouse bucking horses (broncos). That was my trip to the Elensberg Rodeo.

Hey Elli. Your vacation to the rodeo sounds really cool,
did any of the guys riding the bulls or broncos get really seriously injured? Anyways, it's awesome that you got to go see the famous broncos when they weren't in the ring!

Hey Ellie.
That's so cool that you got to go to the Ellensburg Rodeo! I know what you mean that its really windy! It also gets really, really hot and its almost impossible to stand! I always thought it would be fun to see the rodeo so I'm completely jealous! Did anyone gets seriously injured?

I've been to the Elensberg Rodeo once. It's a lot of fun. I think my favorite part was the rodeo clowns. They are really messed up. What was your favorite part? Well, that is lots of fun, except for the wind.
