He shined his boots and got out his best hat refusing to leave his western roots behind. On a rare night out in the city, a loan cowboy left his ranch behind and dug a tuxedo out of the back of his closet. In the land where cowboys and horses rule the rodeo, a different kind of limousine has come out to play! Down in the south there is a whole different expectation when it comes to riding in style.
