The crowd appreciated those participants that turned up to entertain them. Shortage of open bull riders is becoming a common problem and the Mulgildie committee put together a fun day of other sections and local novelty events. Barrel racers made up the majority of competitors and joined in the other fun.
For some reason only 3 bull-riders were in attendance at the Mulgildie Rodeo.Shortages also occurred at Gayndah (called off), Mundubbera (3), Dallarnil (called off). There was no other events listed on the calendars.
Yet there have been an abundance of barrel racers and they have to cart their horses around for less prize-money.
