MUTTON BUSTIN'

Ride Hard Entertainment

Mutton Bustin' is an event where a sheep is held still by an adult or in a small chute, a kiddo takes a riding position on the sheep, and then the sheep is released and will generally start to run in an attempt to make the child fall off. Prizes or ribbons are often given to the children that can stay on the longest.

Children must weight less than 55lbs.

Show up to the Mutton Bustin' ring prior to event times to sign up. Safety equipment is provided, and the event is free. Parent/guardian will need to sign a liability waiver.

Don't miss the LEGENDARY LONGHORNS event, MECHANICAL BULL riding, and BULL-RIDING PHOTO OP provided by Ride Hard throughout Fair!

"There is no doubt there will be a riotous good time in the building when Jeff Martin takes the stage! Jeff learned a long time ago that magic alone could be as ho hum as a Thanksgiving turkey unless it had the trimmings. Here is a show that is fully fleshed with Jeff’s expert skill coupled with his easy good humor, that will leave everyone with a very satisfied feeling, like right down to that last dollop of whipped cream on a slice of pumpkin pie."
