(2005) Pieter Bruegel: Children

This is a blog playful. Want to be a tool to help you find information about the world of games and toys. A simple remedy that brings you closer to childhood memories and invites you to exclaim: What the hell! And why not keep playing? Have a good game!
In principle does not seem fair to have any ingredient other than cattle or show any sign of multisectoral home. Everywhere there is the classic attractions, nothing fancy: Nori, hammers, strollers ...- stalls selling all kinds of products (mineral belts, natural products ...) and places to eat (yes hotdog's and corn in abundance!).
But the clothing of visitors and staging environment that breathes and topically typically American men and women and children of all ages wear cowboy boots and hats wardrobes and wherever you look you see the Stars and Stripes flag.
Suddenly these images that do not go unnoticed at all, makes sense when taken at the site ready to host the rodeo. euro toques The space is elongated like a small football field, which is surrounded by bleachers filled with cowboys who drink Coke and eat moths. Everything is ready to start, but as any good American would need to show the magic spark or surprise. Suddenly and effect as a spring, to me incomprehensible words that come out of the loudspeaker enclosure cause the audience raise their eyes to heaven. Jumps from a plane carrying a parachute attached to a huge American flag standing -dir that more than 15 meters llargada-.
People start to clap and scream like crazy, the "oh! My god! "Heard all around. The parachutist I do not know how he fa- lands in the center of the enclosure quickly and twenty soldiers approaches to prevent and hold the flag touch the ground. The Stars and Stripes heard over the loudspeaker and then everyone gets up and hand on his chest sings the lyrics of the national anthem.
Ignoring me, I thought it only consisted of a rodeo riding atop a horse or an ox or so wild, uncontrolled, and try to stay on as long as possible. Well, the show has these and many other tests: Hold out as long as possible on the horse.
Hold on as long as possible on a bull. In groups of three cowboys get up as soon as possible on top of a runaway horse. In groups of three cowboys get three separate calves from a fortnight (each calf has a different number that indicates that the jury is to be separated).
The show, competition, exhibition 'Tell him how vulgueu- is really amazing and spectacular. Some tests are certainly fantastic beauty treatments, such as speed or separation of animals from the rest of the group. Others have charming then test the strength and skill of the riders. Only proof that tie the veal head and feet causes a certain feeling of rejection saw the animal euro toques lying on one side and another, and then I reflect that it is not only the maintenance of a traditional practice or exercise , arising from labor, which still takes place in certain places and in others it has been replaced by other methods. Finally, and how could it be otherwise, the show ends with a parade of participating riders holding flags of different places of origin.
At the exit and near the site I found one last surprise and awe. It's Mutton bustin. Halfway between fairground attraction and the small workshop for beginners in the world of rodeo, the Mutton bustin is a small space that mimics the rodeo grounds (stands, billboards, closed for animals, boxes for riders euro toques ...).
Here, however, the show is reserved for children aged 3 to 6 years, a certain weight and have parental permission to mount on top of sheep! I can not define the feeling that gives me the show, though not indifferent. And if I get into the skin of the sheep who would become a great school for future riders rodeo!
