Good morning! Liliane your Enlish is very good and I am always in awe of anyone who can speak or write more than one language. Lisa had it right on the rodeo clown. They usually only come out on the bull riding events. One clown stands with a barrel around his waist and one clown without. When the bull rider is thrown or jumps off the clowns distract the bull so the rider can clear out. If need, like Lisa and KK said, the clown can duck down into the barrel and it will roll around if the bull charges it. In between rides they keep the audience amused. Greyhound, the new stadium is great. Went to the football games this year also. I grew up going to the Astrodome though and it is sad to see her sitting there not quite so shiny anymore. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
But, alot fond memories. Have a great weekend everyone! Mary
