Rodeo Quickie

EXT. STADIUM. DAY.

FX TANNOY.

MAN'S VOICE:
Welcome y'all to Saturday rodeo. Now put your hands together and give a great big Texas welcome to tonight's rookie Brad. Brad will be riding Jessie. Jessie is a shapely 300lb steer whose interests include eating grass and sleeping.

FX BUZZER.

MAN'S VOICE:
Ride 'em cowboy!

A BUCKING BULL BOLTS INTO ARENA AND A THALIDOMIDE MAN SITS ON TOP. HE INSTANTLY ROLLS OFF THE SIDE OF THE BULL.

MAN'S VOICE:
A big hand for Brad, ladies and gentlemen.

There are a very few examples of a comedy sketch that is perfect in every way, and this is one of them. Much better that some of the rubbish around now. This is pure comedy, nothing more, nothing less. Its harmless and inoffensive; and not rude, sexist or racist in any way. It is a simple idea based around a normal mundane run-of-the-mill Rodeo. The fact that Brad is a thalidomide just adds to the charm.

Cheers Josef, you're a gent.

I don't get the sketch or the critiques! Huh?

Edit: I've just figured out what YWB stands for :)

'You've written better.'

This one would be best left in a skip.

Definitely a YWB.

But it's a rare dip for the BSG master of the 1 inch punch.
