A Load of Bull: Zeta Bar Rodeo Tonight

The Beijing Rodeo might have been canceled or postponed (depending on which story you believe) but you don't need to miss out on the cowboy action. Mosey on over to Zeta Rodeo at the Hilton tonight for a ten-gallon hatful of rodeo-related revelry.

Country music, authentic country-style grub from Home Plate Bar-B-Que plus Fighting Cock whiskey should be enough to get you in the mood to enter the bull riding contest. Animal rights campaigners and potential contestants will be happy to learn it's a mechanical bull so there's only pride likely to get hurt.

It costs RMB 50 and starts at 8pm. Beijing "Buffalo" Boyce has more details and yet more cowboy-themed puns here.
