Wild, Wild West Court 2015

Sommer Danielsen

My favorite thing about the wild west is cowboy culture. The boots, hats and saloons are so iconic. 

I would live in the wild west if I could because I’ve always wanted to read Laura Ingalls Wilder on the American Frontier and learn to ride a horse.

Ben Louviere

The wild west seems like a rowdy time, and I really liked the movie Rango. That’s probably my favorite thing. 

I would live in the wild west  for a little while, so I could ride some horses and have shootouts with bad guys. But I think I’d get tired of it, especially country music. 

Bailey Borcherding

My favorite thing about the Wild West is all of the flannels and hats. I would not choose to live in the Wild West because there’s a lot of dust and cactuses, and who wants that.

Hunter Lavallee

 My favorite thing about the Wild West is the cowboys. I love cowboys. I would love to live in the Wild West. I feel that it would be fun.

Brenda Sevcik

My favorite thing about the wild west is the tumbleweed. 

No, I would not want to live in the wild west. The showdowns would be nerve wracking to watch, and I appreciate the modern amenities we have.  

Isaac Smith

My favorite thing about the wild west is riding my horse into the sunset as the tumbleweed rolls by and the “The End” appears on the screen. 

I would not want to live in the wild west because I don’t want to get shot. 

Valentine Komen

The best thing about the Wild West is that it’s fun seeing people dress up and embrace western culture. I wouldn’t want to liver there, though, because there are too many snakes. The gun slinging would be fun, though.

Andrew Nurse

My favorite thing about the wild west is the rowdiness of it all. No one gets more rowdy than the wild west, besides the CF student section, of course.  If I could live in the wild west, I definitely would because it just seems like my kind of lifestyle. 

Anne Petersen

My favorite thing about the wild west would be the clothing. The hats, the flannel and so on. If I could live in the wild west, I would not. I’m definitely not into the wild west lifestyle. 

Michael Abbas 

My favorite thing about the wild west is that it felt like everyone knew each other. 

I wouldn’t want to live there there, though, because there was always a lot of violence.

Ellie Burken

Whenever I think I the Wild West, I think of the exciting dangerous atmosphere it had, or at least how movies showed it. I love that feeling of adventure that goes with it. I wouldn’t live there, though. They didn’t have phones, hospitals or cars. Even though I enjoy the good ol’ outdoors, I also love the fact that if something were to happen, I would have the chance to survive, unlike our friends in the Wild West.

Saidi Sula

My favorite thing about the wild west is the spurs on the boots. I wouldn’t live there, however, because I’m not the best at shooting guns.
