And I met an absolute LEGEND in the sport of team roping, Jake Barnes. He was just sitting there next to a trailer as we went to get something cold to drink. And I just "happened" to have my camera, so we asked for a pic. He was super nice and very gracious (especially considering he was up to rope in just a short bit).
I have to say, I was a little star-struck.. this guy is a 7 time world champion! It really made my day and was a real treat to meet him.

We don't have rodeos here in Africa & I have never been to one before, but they must be quite something ! How wonderful that you got to meet such a legend, and have a photo taken, too :)
