"The language is cajun - like from the Opelousas [prairie], not New Orleans."
The expression isn't cajun. A cajun would say, Ai-yee. The northern half of Louisiana, bordering Arkansas and Texas, is more like Texas than it is South Louisiana. South Louisiana is cajun country. :)

Mes cousins & grandparents connaissent assez bein plus que "ai-yee" seulment. Il y a beaucoup des autre expressions qu'"ai-yee." Aussi, je'vous dirai que j'ai endendu que les expressions "yah-ho" et "yippeetayoh" venait des cajuns pres des opelousas d'ou plusiers des cowboys venaient apres la "civil war."
"Yeehaw" is just a hillbillized version, like "do-si-do" in place of "fais do-do."
Also, Opelousas was the original capital of the Confederacy.

The rider was quoting from a movie...terrorist on cell phone calls Bruce Willis a cowboy and he responds with, "Yippee ki yay, motherxxcker."

...coonass was a term of endearment used among Cajuns...Coonass is a term of endearment, used by any who know one or more of them.
FWIW, Coonasses are the best, most independant people in America. Once your friend, always your friend, no matter what.

Riding horses through Wal-Mart...This was a topic of great discussion at Wal-Mart where I work.
We were all a little jealous that the horsemen hadn't chosen our store, if for no other reason than to have seen it. =o)
