Where you been? Haven't seen ya lately.
Used to love the rodeos.
Never been on a Saturday. People watching was classic.![]()
None of the beer vendors knew WTF a Redeye was. When I was a kid, all the cowboys would be lined up at the beer booth on Saturday morning. Most would walk away with a cup of red stuff. Asked my Mother what they were drinking. She said it was called Redeye. Why? Because all the cowboys were hungover from the night before, look at their eyes. Can't go to a stock show and not order one. Usually with lots of hot sauce.
The recipe is 1/2 beer, 1/2 tomato juice (or V8) and hot sauce.
I'll try to post a pic of one of the first stock shows I went to. Pretty funny stuff.
