Earth, Texas is a small community in West Texas where farming is a primary occupation. But the residents do love a good rodeo and once a year the WRCA sanctions three qualifying ranch rodeos on a Friday and Saturday including a Youth Rodeo. The rodeos are usually held on the second week in September.
The area surrounding Earth is relatively very flat which is great for farming and a parody of the Flat Earth Theory. So I decided to make a short video about it and wound up driving some Flat Earthers a reason to expose themselves in the video comments. Ha!
And something that seems hilarious to me is that YouTube thought it proper to place a context statement from Wikipedia just below the video if you watch it on YouTube and you can see a warning box on the thumbnail above. I guess they didn't get the joke either. Haha!!

I visited Pawnee, Oklahoma mainly to document the Oklahoma Steam Show which happens to be the largest show of its kind in Oklahoma. I did manage to check out a few other places in the area that I will be sharing with you in time.
I am currently posting videos from the steam show and here is an example of a crowd-favorite activity from Friday night 2022.
