The Mesquite Championship Rodeo’s Christmas Rodeos will feature bull riding, barrel racing, kids’ mutton bustin’ and a motorcycle daredevil. But nobody goes to rodeos for that: They go for the clowns. Other than maybe being an EMT in some drug-crazed third-world banana republic, is there any other job where you have to dodge an enormous bloodthirsty animal and drag an injured man to safety–all while wearing makeup and trying to make a crowd of spectators laugh? Gates open at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at Resistol Arena, 1818 Rodeo Drive in Mesquite. Tickets are $6 to $11. Call 972-285-8777 or visit mesquiterodeo.com.
Dec. 29-30, 6:30 p.m., 2009
