My family always went to the St. Paul, OR rodeo on July 4, which was my dad’s birthday, every year from the early 60s until maybe 2000 or so. The announcer used to introduce Dad to the crowd. It wasn’t a huge rodeo, but I remember that Wilbur Plaugher would be there each year when I was a kid in the 60s.
Dad died in 2002, and I haven’t been back to that part of the world in at least 20 years now. Sometimes I wonder what that rodeo’s like these days. I hope it’s still just the same.
Aren’t rodeos illegal in MA ?
(Seems awfully right wing )………
I was at The World’s Oldest Rodeo™ in Prescott in 2020, just as the world was going stark, raving mad. Prescott was a holdout then. Hope it still is.
