MDIRL Will Steer You Past The Horns!

Eventually something goes wrong at the rodeo. It may not be today. It may not be next week or next month. Yet, we all know that at some point the water is going to rise and you’ll be looking around for someone to pull you back to shore. Your horse may be able to swim pretty darn good, but he ain’t much use when someone drags you into court!

What will the old timers tell you? Well back in the day, you could wiggle out a few tight squeezes with an stubborn will and fudging the truth a little. However, you can be darn sure that won’t work today. Everybody has a camera and a video recorder in their pocket at all times. If they are not currently recording the action at the rodeo at the exact moment of an accident, you can bet that as soon as they see something start to go wrong – 50 people are going to whip out their phones in 2 seconds flat.
