My Call for the Best Ironpig Promotion of 2011

The Ironpig’s just announced that photo’s were available on their website of most of the promotions and giveaways for the 2011 season. You can view them here.

I also noticed something new scheduled for Saturday July 30th.

The “Wild Thang” Tim Lepard and his traveling rodeo Team Ghost Riders will be making an appearance at The Coke!

Yeah, I thought the same thing you are now… Who?

I looked them up and get this… it’s a group of monkeys riding dogs, rodeo style. Monkeys riding dogs!

From Tim Lepard’s website:

My accomplishments include the (IFR) International Finals Rodeo, 3 Time Winner for “Comedy Act of the Year”, 3 Time Winner for “Dress Act of the Year”, and 1 Time Winner for “Barrel man of the Year”. I am the only showman that has performed in all 3 coliseums in Oklahoma City at the IFR and the only person to win all 3 awards in the same year. In the IFR Showcase, I won “Comedy & Dress Act” a total of 6 times. I have participated in the Columbus Ohio Pet Expo and have been featured on America’s Funniest Home Videos, FHM Magazine, Sports Illustrated and had a scheduled appearance on the Jay Leno Show and Steve Harvey’s “Big Show”. I also served on the Board of Directors of the Mississippi Stock Dog Association.

Lepard has been in the rodeo world for over 28 years, is a champion bull fighter and was influence by the late great Lane Frost.

I think this is going to be the best this year.. what do you think?

    I seem to remember another team here in the Northeast having them at a game in 2010… may have been Scranton.
