w041715 RODEO 01 — Brandon "Hootie" Rippy, of Madison, Tenn., loses his hat right out of the shoot on an otherwise successful bareback ride to kick off the first scored event of the 2015 Statesboro Kiwanis Rodeo last Friday at the Kiwanis Ogeechee Fairgrounds.

The bulls and broncs have all gone home to pasture, relaxing after their 8–16 seconds of work. Hedrick Rodeo Company is preparing the arena, their stock animals and riding horses for their next venue. Miss Rodeo USA Kirbi Allen headed home for rest before her next gig.
