[QUOTE="StrojanHerefords, post: 1792988, member: 42988"] Out here in California, all the production sales have put tv's in the sale ring. I talked to an outfit who made the change and he said that they get an extra thousand dollars a bull and don't have to hire a crew to bring the bulls through the ring. Going to bull sales is no longer fun for me, they remind me too much of Vegas. Free booze, free food, if you want a coke you have to go into the kid's line. By the end of the sale, the buyers were so drunk the don't know what they are doing. Most people who buy bulls from the $10,000 a bull outfits are buying status symbols not genetics. With AI and Embryo transplant, the same genetics can be had for half the money at a Ma and Pa breeder's sale or a third the money private treaty. [/QUOTE]
