Yes I have another bit of wisdom to impart... Peg and I went to our second cow auction last Saturday. What we thought was an oversight on everyone's part were two front center seats five feet from the arena. Why would these great seats be empty? We sat down and waited for the festivities to begin.
The first group of cows came into the small arena and kicked up all kinds of dirt, much of it landed in our laps. Well do we get up? Do we admit that we are surprised and so dumb that we made this terrible mistake and move? Heck no! We are "pros" and sat there just so we could experience the "ground game." We stayed put and pretend to laugh off all of the "indignities" tossed our way for the next hour and a half. Yes, and there were all kinds of stuff flung off and out of these cows at us! So my bit of advice to novice cowpokes going to a cow auction; do not be tempted by the first row of empty seats!
Sorry no pictures... My phone was trapped in my pocket by mud and cow poop!
