Cows sleep lying down.

Oh, yeah - good luck getting through the electric fence.

Farmer I worked for had every single cow pasture secured with electric wire. You touch one of those ( and I have by accident ) and you will not forget it.

There is no “rutting” season when it comes to cattle.

I worked on a dairy farm every summer during my teen years, grew up in a very rural area of Maine and never once did I hear of such thing. Never.

BTTT

I grew up in rural Ohio, worked on neighboring farms including a few dairy over the years. Never heard of cow tipping even as a joke until I went to college in "the big city".

Saw a young feller straddle one last year about this time. Apparently blue jeans aren't much of an insulator... ;-)

As long as I get good service, I tip the young lady no matter how big or small she is.

It was always fun to get the drunk city kids to pee on the electric fence.

yup.

I’ll bet the guys that told you all about cow tipping insisted it was real. Damned fools had never even seen a cow in their life.

Go try it. =) That’s the only way to find out for sure.

If it is real there would be all sorts of videos floating around.

Anyone who’s done it has had to do it to a real lame breed of cattle. =)

Then again the easiest way to tip a cow is to lasso it’s feet.

I know, but you still understood what I meant.

When I was young and VERY stupid, we were spotlighting deer. We had a sixpoint standing, looking into the light and I got out of the car, snuck around behind him and jumped on his back. My buddies were pissed because we were all drunk and had to take me to hospital for stitches in my thigh from his hooves, and stitches in my chest where he gored me. He was kinda startled.

Cows are dumber than dumb

Yeah, but at least they like jazz.

1. Cows sleep lying down

2. Sneaking up on a cow is not an easy task. Beef cattle are not pets, and do not like to be touched. When you come inside of about 10’ from them, they perk up and pay attention.

3. Due to the weight, tipping a cow requires more than a little bit of a shove. Cows don’t just topple.

4. If someone does sneak up on a cow and shove it over, they are being a real prick, as the cow is likely to be hurt.

Oh, yeah. It's for real!

When ever you are ready, we can go tip a few!

I never tip cows unless they provide exemplary service. And then no more than 10 percent of the bill.
