Years of training, and it all comes down to a 6 second ride. The brilliance is in the simplicity. You take a small child and you put it on a sheep. Then you let the sheep go and see how long the small child can hang on. The winner gets a belt buckle. It’s sweeping the nation. It’s “Mutton Bustin’.”

There’s an official website. And there are a million hilarious videos of children falling off sheep on YouTube. They tumble to the ground. Shoes go flying. As they say in this video, “This is the only legal form of child abuse.” Why couldn’t my parents have been more careless with me?
