A TALL TALE:
Bronco Billy was born in Texas in 1879. By the time he was five he was riding bulls like was a professional. Nobody really liked him because everybody was so jealous that he was so good and he was so young. He rode bulls like they were little ponies.

By the time he was in his teens he was in the rodeo riding some of the best bulls there were. He rode every bull more than nine seconds. Then it came down to the finalists: there was Bronco Billy,Diamond Joe and Tex Ritter. They had to ride "Nine Second Ned". Nobody had ever rode him for more than nine seconds, because he was so good. Both Diamond Joe and Tex Ritter had ridden him and lost. When it was Bronco's turn, he rode him for more than nine seconds and won! Everybody cheered for him. =__A BOSS__= People had all different brands from the lazy a ranch to the swinging z ranch.It took a lot of people to brand cows.Branding cows started in the Egyptian times.To a brand on a cow first you have to make your brand on metal then you have to heat the metal after that you burn it on the cow.
