Durango’s celebrity’s came out today for an afternoon of Old West fun with the 2010 Railfest Celebrity Quick Draw Competition. Your’s truly was one of the celebrity contestents (going to prove that our celebrity scene is less than desirable) but even though I sported a Cowboy hat for the event, I was, unfortunately, disqualified for showing up in shorts and flip-flops… ;-(
After weeks of drawing down on my wife and dogs, I left disappointed and shamed for showing up in true Durango style. However, the rest of the contestants seemed to have a great time showing their stuff and competing for bragging rights for years to come.
I left with another dream shattered but I remain resolved to practice and come back stronger (and better dressed) next year! Check out more of Durango’s fun and unique events and plan your trip for some small town / Old West charm!
