Baddest. Cowboy. Texas. These are just a few words to describe the Baddest Cowboy in Texas. He roots 'n' toots 'n' roots, from the mightiest mountains to the sauciest saloons. But what happens when a Badder Cowboy-er Texas-er (AKA his nemesis) rides into town and steals his title? Bangtail is an epic tale of a man in search of his manhood. So saddle up for an hour of unbridled cowboy clown chaos as our hero journeys from the Wild West to the American office.
