Members Dink Posted April 28, 2008 Author Members Report Posted April 28, 2008 Sounds like a woman that I would not want to mess with, plus I would want her on my side at all time. This sounds like a woman I wold refer to as mam. Though I would be lying to you if I told these were made for a woman. Dink Very, Very nice, Dink! My days of rodeo are far past but I sure like to see nice work. Incidently I figure I'd add my two cents regarding the pink pair. I've known some tough gals who could darn well wear anything they wished. Thirty years ago my dad worked for the U.S. Forest Service and he hired his first woman fire fighter. The crew messed with her for the first few days until they asked her to go bring them the old horseshoeing anvil. She walked over, picked it up with one hand and tucked it under her arm and marched right over to them. They (the guys who were the cool, pretty boy college types nailing down a summer job) didn,t bother her after that and she returned to the crew every summer for many years. Some of the toughest people I've known have been women. Quote

Elton Joorisity Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 The "Tough Enough To Wear Pink" comment I made was a referral to Wrangler's program that donates money to breast cancer research. Most big rodeos have a designated "pink" night and competitors and fans alike show up adorned in pink shirts.

Most big rodeos have a designated "pink" night and competitors and fans alike show up adorned in pink shirts. Very familiar with the "Tough Enough to Wear Pink" program but what me chuckle is that it takes a "pink" cancer campaign to make men wear pink. Rodeos aren't the only events that have a designated "pink" night. Regards, Ben Quote
Members grumpyguy Posted April 29, 2008 Members Report Posted April 29, 2008 I have not been around rodeo for sometime and had no idea what the slogan meant. I would not want to offend anyone and cancer of any sort is not a laughing matter. I'm glad to see serious efforts by the Wrangler and the PRCA contestants to support research for these particular cancer victims. That however does not change the the chaps were well made and excellently executed! Quote

Members nobearsyet Posted June 17, 2009 Members Report Posted June 17, 2009 Through the time I spent as a proffessional rodeo cowboy I wore pink chaps for the 3 roughstock events every night, sometimes twice a day if the shows were close enough (you can pull that off if you belong to a couple diferent sanctioning bodies) and I took a bunch of flack for it. Until later that night at the after party... BTW, they look good enough to me Quote I really need to learn what I'm doing, then maybe I won't make too many more mistakes. But then again people have always told me I am over ambitious.
