Editorial Multimedia: Rodeo Kindergarten

Sunday evenings each summer, roughly two-dozen wanna-be cowboys and cowgirls don hats, spurs and chaps to take a ride on a non-too-happy sheep.

Each rider hopes for a sheep who bucks enough to land them a good score – but not enough to knock them bottom first into the dirt.

Their goal: graduate from rodeo kindergarten.
