Peecans	Yes but it was an incredible bad abscess and it broke open on the corner band and caused wounds and holes over 3/4 of the band. He was lame for over a month, once it all drained he was ok, a bit sore from walking funny but he was fine. I missed the last two rodeos and the finals that year and I sold him that winter a few years back. Hes still running and working like a rock star.
