rodeo was about the same as ten years ago when i went. however, the announcer kept running his mouth and distracting from the actual event. i know all the sponsors need to get their advertisements in, but take care of the event at hand. also, the "jokes" by the clown and the announcer were a lot "Blue" for the children in the audience. if i were a parent with small children, i would be upset at the inapproperateness.
