Stick Horse Rodeo
Kelly Connett, Corner Post Staff

September 25, 2003- What do you get when you put a bunch of Aggies competing against each other with events like cider chugging and hay bale tossing? A ton of laughs that’s for sure.

The first event was the three legged race which was won by GDI team 1. The next event was a hay bale tossing competition that was won by the Rodeo Club. Alpha Gamma Rho took first in the human wheelbarrow race along with the cider chug. The Rodeo Club also won the Stick horse barrel race. “This was hilarious”, said Kendra Butcher, a sophomore Ag business major, “It is always a fun event to come to every year”!

The action took place Thursday night around 7:00 p.m. at Trowbridge Livestock arena. Ten teams competed in the five events. The ten teams who competed were Rodeo Club, 2 teams from GDI, Alpha Gamma Rho, Mizzou FFA, Collegiate Cattlewoman, Sigma Alpha, Ag Week team, Collegiate Horseman Association, and Block and Bridle.

The final results for the night ended with the Rodeo Club in first place, Alpha Gamma Rho in second place, GDI Team 1 in third, Block and Bridle in fourth and Collegiate Horseman Association in fifth.
