I haven't been to many rodeos, but my recollection is that the rodeo clown jumps into the ring when the rider comes off the bull to divert the bull's attention away from the rider. In other words, the clown becomes the substitute target in place of the fallen rider. These are great guys. Is my recollection correct?
You are correct.
“These are great guys. Is my recollection correct?”
If you are a bull rider that just got his ‘bell rung’, trying to pick yourself up off the ground while about 2000 pounds of bull is trying to horn your azz, yeah—clowns are your best friend.
