The Quest for the Absurd: Cowboys Breaking Outrageous Records in Southwest New Mexico’s Wild West Competitions

The trail might be tough, but a cowboy always finds a way forward.

In Southwest New Mexico’s blazing sun,

Where wild hearts rally, the quest’s begun.

With lassos twirling and laughter loud,

Cowboys chase dreams to make their folks proud.

A record set for the tallest steer,

With ropers, riders, all gathered near.

The dust kicked up, a swirling dance,

Each cowboy’s eyes hold a daring glance.

Under the stars, they gather ‘round tight,

Swapping tall tales into the night.

From longest ride on a bucking beast,

To the loudest whoop, their joy unleashed.

So, raise a glass to the spirit that’s bold,

In competitions where legends are told.

For in the wild west, where records do bend,

Cowboys seek laughter, their truest friend.
