Well,I'm all for dreams and following your dreams if you've worked your butt off to be able to do it ,,,but,,,,,one of the so n so "Professional Barrel Racer" asking for funds has appearantly quite their job (or took a long hiatis) and has been down in Az for the past few months barrel racing.  We should all be able to quite our jobs, load up and head to Az. for the winter, run in the 3D and have the public fund it.
You're only telling me this was an option NOW?! I went for four months like 5 years ago during a layoff from work. I'm not lying, I rolled through the price of a good rodeo horse like butter between me and my team roper then-boyfriend. Money flows like water there, you've never seen it go so fast! And we were the poor folks there (my nest egg has NEVER recovered, ah to be young and irresponsible again). We crawled home and luckily the oilfield woke back up just in time and put us back to work before we bankrupted.
To give myself some props though, I mostly ran in the 2D, even placed a little. And I paid my own way. And his.
BUT, since this is evidently a THING, I'm taking up collections IMMEDIATELY!! Who's going with me?! The public'll pay for it! |
