Default Bull Hops the Rail at CFR Last Night

Hey all,

I was just curious to see if any of you were at the CFR last night. I was and a bull jumped the guard rail into the crowd.

It was such a surreal thing to see. When you see it on videos and the like, it doesnt even come close to the experience that it is live.

Without the two rescue men on the horses in the middle of the arena, it would have been a complete nightmare. The one had just gotten a rope around the bulls neck before it went over. His actions and the actions of all of the cowboys and the rescue workers there saved many people from more harm.

One lady was taken out on a stretcher, I hope that she is ok.

If any of you were there and were part of the rescue efforts, stand up and take a bow, you did an amazing job last night.


Mickey

Gotta love youtube. Looks like someone caught it with their cel phone. Pretty far away and the orientation is askew.

Crazy! But you know what's weird? I was watching the rodeo highlights on the news yesterday and thought to myself "I wonder if a bull has ever managed to jump the fence?" and then it happened. Telepathy is a weird thing.
