🎧 Clark County Fair Monday: Bull Riding and Mutton Bustin’

The concert series has ended, so let’s transition to animals, cowboys and cowgirls with bull riding, rodeo, and mutton bustin’ at the Clark County Fair

At night, the big animals will take over the grandstands at the Clark County Fair on Monday, with courageous adults taking them for a ride.

During the day, smaller animals will take their turns in the arena, with smaller, yet courageous, souls taking them for a ride.

The main event Monday night is Hell on Hooves Extreme Bull Riding.

This is where “courage meetings a thousand pounds of chaos and every second counts,” according to the description on the Clark County Fair’s website. Bull riding starts at 7 p,m.

But earlier in the day, children will get a chance to take a ride on a sheep for mutton bustin’ qualification.

That’s right, at 2 p.m., children, with the blessing of their parents, can get registered for mutton bustin’. The top 15 riders during the day will qualify for finals, which will be held either Monday night during a break in bull riding or Tuesday at the rodeo.

It is a tradition of the Clark County Fair.

Of course, there are the other staples of the fair. Rides. Food. Vendors. Acts throughout the day on the community stage. Oh, and so many animals to see, too.

A friendly reminder that the fair opens at 10 a.m., but the carnival, with its thrill rides and family fun rides, does not open until noon.

DogTown will have events throughout the day on Monday. There is a hypnotist show and a science show, as well. Plus the Pirate’s Parrot show is daily. Plus Barnyard Races.

Mars Encounters, the featured exhibit for families, is open all day, but also has three live shows throughout the day: 2:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m., and 6:30 p.m.

Those are just some of the highlights on Monday. For a full list of activities, go to the fair schedule at: https://www.clarkcofair.com/daily-schedule
