Roping Can Be Hazardous to Your Health: Southwestern Humor
Not everyone can turn a near‑disaster into a hilarious story—but Brummett sure can. He can make you laugh about the time he jumped off a thirty‑foot windmill into a water tank that turned out to have only three feet of water in it. He can even make a day that began with three giant scorpion stings sound like something you’d tell around a campfire. And somehow, he can turn the moment his three‑year‑old grandson got tossed off a bull—flying higher than Brummett had ever seen a kid fly—into a tale you can’t help but chuckle at.
Through all the jokes and quick one‑liners, Brummett paints a picture of the American West where old traditions and new ways bump into each other every day. Hard work is mixed with humor, pranks lighten the load, and that unstoppable frontier spirit keeps shining through.
