Ladies’ barrel riding

Bull riding. Usually the cowboy lasts about 2 seconds...

This one went down pretty fast. Extremely difficult to take any pictures here...

Here a bunch of 14-year-olds trying to catch calves. Hillarious to watch.

Herding calves. The horses are amazingly well trained. Really impressive.

This is where the Texas steak comes from.

Piggy racing. Ultra hillarious. They know what is waiting for the winner in the finish – a cookie – so they really run fast.

Another cool classic. Small kids riding on large sheep. The sheep runs like mad and the kid tries to hold as long as possible.

In the evening all cowboys need a good beverage...
