Richard Hendrix is a yuppie, a dentist, a family man with arocky marriage.
He’s on his way to a dental conference in San Diego and,refusing to fly,
he’s on a long road trip across the desert as he seeks theadventure of the
open road. But the engine of his year-old Range Rover makesstrange noises,
so he pulls off the main highway and drives into a country townnot located
on the map, a place called Rodeo Town.
Rodeo Town once thrived as a hub of the rodeo circuit, withthousands
attending and a bubbling economy. But people’s tastes changed, rodeosfaded
from popularity, and now only a trio of cowboys remain, holding to
theremnants of an old way of life. Richard approaches the cowboys (Garth,
Lonnieand Kelly) looking for help, but he is soon sucked into their
closedmini-society, with its own code of behavior, powered by quantities
of Maker’sMark.
Richard has pulled in just in time to witness andparticipate in Rodeo
Town’s annual ritual: The one day of the year when womenare brought into
town so the men can engage in pleasuring with a femalecompanion. This
year, there is just one woman, but a startling woman, and afterthis
particular alcohol-drenched festivity, neither Richard nor the cowboyswill
be the same ever again.
