Description
This experience is a rooting, tooting, (but no shooting) good time. Come see the original Texas cowboy, Pecos Bill as he rides the twister, befriends the rattlesnake, howls with the coyote, invents the very first rodeo, tames the wild mustang, herds the cattle, carves out the Rio Grande River, and then he faces a real challenge when he meets up with the bodacious Slue Foot Sue. “It don't git no better than this y'all”. This program is overflowing with good, clean, corny Texas-size fun with no negative references to our Native American Friends. Perfect for any study of Tall Tales, Texas History, Western Days, Wild West, Texas Independence Day, Pioneers, Heroes, Cowboys or just wanting to have a good time!
