Save a Bull, Ride a ... Stranger?

While it's widely accepted that most people don't want an eight-second ride, we now have an excellent, bull-free alternative for those of you who, for whatever reason, do: Urban Rodeo!
The concept is like that of a regular rodeo. Mount an unwilling participant and hold on for dear life, marking your success by how long you can stay latched on to the bucking, bewildered beast. The only difference between this and other rodeos is the ropes, spurs, and other cruelty involved, such as internal injuries and extensive bruising. Oh, and I seriously doubt participants in the "Urban Rodeo" are shipped off to slaughter once they've outlived their usefulness. However, similar to a regular rodeo, participants are encouraged to "leg it" immediately after being tossed from the animal in order to avoid injury.
Got any other clever ideas that could serve as an alternative to a performing animal act or rodeo? Let me know—who knows, I might give your idea a shot and see how it works out!

Omg that video is hilarious. I literally lol-ed. Human rodeos are way more fun than the cruel and idiotic kind that uses animals. Lovely blog, Sean.

I CAN'T STOP LAUGHTING! THE SLOW-MOTION ACTION WAS GREAT!The only thing that was missing were the stupid clowns that they use to "scare" the poor cow or bulls at the real rodeos.

Oh, this is fantastic! I laughed out loud. Definitely gets the message across. Wish there was some way an activist could show this video on a big jumbo screen at the PBR finals.
I'd love to see the look on all those big, tough bull-ridin' #$@holes' faces when they see how STUPID AND RIDICULOUS their so-called "sport?" really is.
PETA...I am in awe of you!
THANKS!
