A highly intoxicated cowboy twice rode into the 'Cowboy's Saloon' in Scott, LA., and after trotting down the road returned and lassoed a man in the parking lot. Seems a little 'Broke Back Mountainy' to me, he could of just bought him a drink.
Tammy Guidry tells The Advocate that she was at Cowboy’s Saloon with her husband drinking and listening to the bar’s regular Tuesday night entertainer — Dustin Sonnier — when she saw Jeremy Mouton ride his horse through the bar’s entrance.
“All of a sudden we were listening to music and the horse comes through the door. And it was a big horse,” Guidry said. “He came in and nearly clipped the fiddle player.”
Guidry said the noise in the bar startled the horse, which turned around and headed out the door, knocking Mouton’s cowboy hat off when the 26-year-old man’s head hit the top of the door frame.
“But the guy turned (the horse) around and went back in,” Guidry said.
Once the horse and rider were back outside, Mouton lassoed a man twice and bumped him to the ground, said Guidry, who called 911.
Scott Police Chief Chad Leger said the incident started late Tuesday night, with the Scott police dispatcher receiving the call at 12:20 a.m. Wednesday about a disturbance at the bar on Ambassador Caffery north of Interstate 10.
Mouton was booked into the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center on counts of disturbing the peace, remaining after being forbidden, second-degree battery and public intimidation and retaliation. Leger said Mouton had posted bond and was out of jail Wednesday morning.
