Businessman Steer Decorating
Click here for BSD Entry Form/Application
Deadline for application April 30, 2012
Get your application in !!! ONLY $100.00 per Team !!!
It's a serious switch from an office environment to tying ribbons on the tail of a steer in the rodeo arena in front of 10,000 fans....
Watch 8 different teams compete every night of the rodeo.
There are two contestants (not always men), a holder and a tier, and one judge per team every night of the rodeo. That's 10 steers, 10 holders, 10 tiers, 10 team judges and a few other folks. That's at least 40 total people and steers moving independently inside the arena. Many work hard and fast trying to be winners. Others get embarrassed, flee from the steer, and try to get the hell out of there. Click here to watch a video! |
