Rodeo Clown

[Eulenspiegel7646 at aol.com]

Being a rodeo clown is serious business. 
The job is dangerous and requires athletic ability, said Damon Rogers, a 
rodeo clown who is performed at the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association 
Championship Rodeo in late January at the Kansas Expocentre.
"My primary responsibility is entertainment and filling the dead space," 
Rogers said. "I have a secondary responsibility as a cowboy protector."
He keeps a sign on the wall of his home in Austin, Texas, that reads, 
"Spectacular success is always preceded by unspectacular preparation." Rogers said 
the public doesn't see the hours of preparation that Olympic athletes put into 
achieving a gold medal, much like how they don't see the hard work that goes 
into being a rodeo clown.
