RIP Larry. A cowboy before helmets, armored vests, purple shirts and earrings.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

One of my boyhood hero's , got to meet him a few times as a youngster and he always had time to speak to and offer encouragement to us rodeo wannabes.

We all knew his name, just like Babe Ruth.

I saw him a couple of times at the Snake River Stampede.

He was the face of Rodeo for years. Just like Trevor Brazile and Stetson Wright are now.

Godspeed sir. Thanks for the memories.

My father used to work cattle every spring and fall for 10 days to two weeks with Larry Mahan and Jim Bob Altizer on a big ranch near our home. Hard working honest men. Photo of my father circa 1960. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/x1yjp4y.jpg)

RIP Larry. A cowboy before helmets, armored vests, purple shirts and earrings. Oh my hell, purple shirts! You dipshit. If you really knew anything about Larry Mahan, you would know he was just as flamboyant as Sid and Rocker ever were and caught as much hell for his long hair. Same thing could be said about Tibbs and Shoulders in their time. It’s the man, not the color of his shirt or length of his hair. RIP to an icon. And I’d love to see you call a roughy a pussy to his face for wearing a vest or a helmet.
