Half Mile Of Hell

Not sure what the hell I am talking about? This is the coined phrase that describes the “World Professional Chuckwagon Association“. It really is crazy if you haven’t seen it before. Part of the attraction of the Calgary Stampede

I had the privilege of attending the “chucks” both in Calgary and recently in Strathmore. Leaving a little early, I missed out on a couple of crazy events including the “Running of the Bulls”. This event is not for the faint at heart. It is much like the one is Spain, where people run around when they let the bulls out and try not to get hurt or hit. I wish I could embed the following video, but check out:

1. Go to http://wpca.com/video.aspx
2. Scroll down to the different locations on the flash player and make sure you are viewing “Strathmore“
3. Scroll through the videos to hit “Running of the Bulls: Day 2“

That video has a contact with a bull and one of the contestants that is just crazy.   It is around 1/2 way through the 3:33 video
