Leave the fans wanting to see just a little more. Ask the old timers what is missing in rodeo today and to a word they'll tell you today's bullfighters cannot do comedy. I can be just as macho as anyone in the business, and I can do comedy bullfighting. That is one of the main characteristics that has made the rodeo clown so popular as rodeo progressed. While most bullfighters maintained a macho image and refrained from the comedy and entertainment aspects of rodeo, Allen took his family with him on the road and involved them in this comedy acts.
Rodeo is one of the few sports that has something for the entire family.
That's why so many people who attend rodeos, do so as a family. That's right, the clowns. If you were to ask them what they enjoyed most about the rodeo, different people may name different events, but they all want to see the clown. Allen Nelson is one of the few bullfighters who doesn't mind being called a clown. All of the families that are at the rodeo are there to be entertained, and Allen is an entertainer.
