I don't know how much intestinal fortitude it takes to get on a bull but I know I don't have enough!

Ouch!  I thought you were talking about a mechanical bull until I saw the pictures.  Somehow this doesn't look like something I'd want to do but I know some people love it!  Great shots, thank you for sharing them.

Those are some great photos.  They remind me of when I was young and foolish.  I rode bareback broncs for two years and tried the bulls three times.  Then I decided that it wasn't worth the pain, so I stayed with the broncs.

Dan - I don't either, it looks too painful for me.

Carole - I don't think I'd like to ride a bull either but it's very popular here in the summer.

Debra - I agree...Ouch!

Gary - Thanks! My daughter took the photos, sounds like you made a good decision but the broncs look painful too!
