Default Rodeo Deaths

There were two rodeo deaths on Saturday. One guy was 21, one was 17. Barely got two sentences in the local fish wrap here on a Tuesday.

A horse breaks down and that's all we see from the news outlets. I wonder how many breakdowns occur in rodeo? Seems that "sport" is much rougher on the animals than asking them to run fast on flat ground.

Two human beings died and it gets zero attention. I guess it is because they chose to put themselves in that position, so it's no big deal.
