It’s another day in the office for a trio of rodeo clowns trying to save a stranded cowboy atop a bucking bull. The bull seems to have the upper hand as he gets his point across to one of the clowns. Animation included a bucking bull, the clown in the front barrel pops up and looks left to right, and the rear clown and barrel flat spin. The bull was so large that its head was hinged so that it swings down and miss the 210 freeway bridge as the float passed underneath. This float was dedicated to the memory of long time member Jack Gillette. The bull’s bell bore the name “Jack” in honor of Mr. Gillette. |
