Governor Butch Otter: Can YOUR Governor Ride and Rope?



Not everyone’s Governor could claim to be a good hand with the horses.

Last summer found Governor Butch Otter competing in the Snake River Stampede rodeo as a team roper. Wearing his knee brace, the Governor scored a time of 17:10.

When interviewed by Rodeo on the Radio’s Dave Tester, Gov. Butch Otter applauded Idaho's rodeo season and the people who made it happen. He clearly enjoyed the obvious excitement and electricity that the state’s rodeos generate. Idaho enjoys the generated revenue, too.

Radio personality Dave Tester thinks a roping test might be the way to go when choosing our state’s leaders.

“Maybe a new requirement for the Commander-In-Chief should be that they have to rope and ride. Then we’d only catch the good ones, and let the others try something else.”

Can your Governor rope and ride? Ours can.
Neener, neener, neener.
