[QUOTE="J. T., post: 208141, member: 289"] 1)Saw a man with his jeans shredded from the knee down and soaked in blood where he had jumped in the pen with a sow that had pigs. She chewed him up good 2)My daddy haltered a steer and was trying to load him onto the back of the pickup. He wrapped the rope around his hand and the steer bolted dragging my daddy down the gravel driveway 3)When I was kid we were loading steers on the truck.

Well, I weighed all of 100 lbs. and when the steer ran I instinctively grabbed the rope. The rope became taut and shot me out of the barn like an arrow from a bow.
