I've heard the term barrel man forever. It's always been interchangeable with rodeo clown. Not all rodeo clowns are barrel men.

---

This. All barrel men are rodeo clowns, but not all rodeo clowns are barrel men.

One week away from the unofficial kickoff to cookoff. Who has extra wristbands?

surprisingly good. Got an Uber notification today for code #nosurge to avoid surge times.

Should be fine. In and out with relative ease

Take the rail to downtown and get your uber there. You may think that would take longer, but it doesn't. Also, you could carry $50-100 cash with you to bribe one of the uber drivers in line to take you home and cancel their existing ride request.

Anyone selling carnival tickets? Don't mind buying from an Ag.

When do they typically announce this? I'm usually pretty good at googling, but I can't find anything about cook off performers online for this year. The official website just says generic stuff.

Thanks. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. edit - finally found it.

Slightly disappointed. Only been asked once if I have extra wristbands/badges. Either people are catching on with cookoff or my ridicules in the past have reached enough people to no longer ask me.

Hey, you got any cookoff wristbands?

Also a fair assessment of the situation.

Is this the new transplanted-hick "I'm rich and know everything about Houston" schtick? IT'S COOKOFF TIME AND PEOPLE AXE ME FER WRISTBANDZ I MAKES FUN OF THEM CUZ I KNOW EVERYTHING HOUSTON LOL

Btw, folks, when you see drunk 20-somethings stumbling around cookoff, just remember - that's the appropriate age to be drunk stumbling around cookoff.

I'm on the Medical & Safety Committee - while this is true, we will be treating many, many 30- and 40-somethings that can't handle their alcohol. It's the main reason I don't work cookoff anymore.

I resemble that remark.

Role of the committee to determine if said person under the influence has capacity to refuse medical care? If so, I understand why you do not volunteer.

I'm looking for 4 for Zac Brown, if any of you non-poors are selling.

Microwave Onions said:

That was exactly my point, friend. 40-somethings don't need to be out in public trying to party like they could when they were young. It's sad and embarrassing for everyone. In college, I worked in a place where I had the pleasure of dealing with that every Friday night when townies got paid.

Though the one time I think I've seen you working at Cookoff (or another Aggie on your committee), it was because of 2 teenage girls who were probably going to be found somewhere the next day if y'all didn't pick them up.

Back in the day when I work every day of Cookoff, I arranged for more than a couple that were beyond gone to be taken to triage for assessment. I miss those days...to a point.

Yeah, it was one of those, late enough that everyone on our end was already off and I had to call someone to cal y'all out and get the kids to triage. I just happened to be walking back from a tent at the same time and some off-duty cops who were also headed home stayed with us until we knew medical was coming. Fun fun.

Turnpike is playing the parade on the 11th, in assuming it won't be a normal set and you can't really catch more than whatever they are playing when they go by? I'm very unfamiliar with the HLS&R parade. Thanks for the info.

The parade is this Saturday. Turnpike is playing the rodeo. The rodeo concerts are about an hour.

Weird I went to their site and it says parade. Guess I should have looked at rodeo site. Thanks

Would anyone happen to have two tickets for sale for Cody Jinks on March 13?

I have pair Cody jinks. Kyle@maximinsure.com

I have a pair I'm willing to past with if the price is right.

Good time tonight at Cookoff. A little warm compared to last year but can't complain.

I have 2 Club Level seats left.
