MECHANICAL BULL
Test out your balance skills Friday from 6-9:30 p.m. and Saturday from Noon - 8 p.m. on the mechanical bull located on the Festival Grounds! Teens and adults can “Ride the Bull”. The action is fast and furious, the ride is safe, and the look is nothing short of incredible. Our bull is completely covered in foam latex which means riders can actually squeeze their knees together to get a more secure ride and longer time in the saddle. Next, our mechanical bull is completely covered in synthetic cowhide that makes it look like it just wandered out of the field to challenge you. It looks amazingly real - from the horns, the eyes, the nose and the tail; you’ll be hard pressed to decide whether to ride this monster or feed it some hay. Finally, our landing area is a soft, air-filled, inflated surface. It’s fun and it’s safe. It’s perfect for festivals or town celebrations, corporate picnics, high school post proms and graduation lock-ins. See if your gang has what it takes to “Ride The Bull”.

HYPNOTIST
Hypnotist Cory Osborn first became interested in hypnosis at the age of 15 when he was attempting to find a way to increase his concentration and focus in school. He’s studied direct hypnosis with Jeffrey Stephens, and stage hypnosis with renowned performers such as legendary hypnotist Dr. Jim Wand and Las Vegas headliner Marc Savard. Whereas most comedy hypnotists perform with just a microphone, The Osborn Experience is a carefully crafted spectacle, using current music and events and a stunning light and sound show to enhance the performance. Osborn will be performing live during Fish Days this year beginning at 2 p.m. Saturday on the Festival Grounds.
