Rodeo
A short story inspired by Chuck Wendig’s Flash Fiction Challenge, Holiday
Horror Extravaganza
Pretty much nsfw.

Forty below and I don’t give a fuck
Got a heater in my truck
“…and
I’m off to the rodeo!” Even cranked to full volume, Garry Lee and the Showdown got
drowned out as Lonnie sang along. Well, Lonnie shouted joyfully more than sang
to the invisible black landscape, pounding on the steering wheel.
Jesus,
I can’t even see the road. There might be a ditch there… or over there… “…piss
me off… fuckin’ jerk… get on m’nerrrrrrrves!”
