Pretty good show.

It was the calf roper from Meteetsee WY whose horse took off after he tied his calf and went to get back on his horse. That was tragic for him. Makes you wonder why he did that. What a run he had going!!I watched some and then went to Bible study. Came home and turned it on. Just caught the tail end but then they started the rerun. I got to watch it all up to the point where I had caught it when I got home. Hunter in the calf roping was a real thrill of victory and the agony of defeat story in just a few seconds. Watch 1.1 million run away.
I found out from a knowledgeable friend in Texas that either the crowd scared the horse or......there was a drone overhead and that may have scared him. The drone is how we could see from above, the arena at times. This friend said he saw a video of that calf roper petting his horse in the back after the run. He was interviewed and said something to the effect of "none of us are perfect. I'm not and my horse isn't. It wasn't our time to win. We've been a long ways together, this horse and me, and we'll just head to the next rodeo."It was the calf roper from Meteetsee WY whose horse took off after he tied his calf and went to get back on his horse.
