Was in it that year (and a few later ones). Great fun and truly a young mans game. It was my first time on a horse and mostly stayed on for another 8 hours of wild galloping and drinking. The next day I knew it too well. A beer is thrown out to the riders as they pass by the beer/boudin truck after each stop of chicken chasing and dancing and after a few dozen stops... you get the picture. Mostly a matter of surviving the wild ride and making it to the dance later that evening. Nothing like it. I hope to do it again one day.
I went to this with my family in 1993.
Almost all of them are gone.
They taught me to eat, drink and be jolly!
