“GOAT RIDERS in the Sky”

I would have to say this is probably one of my most popular cartoons.
I spent about 16 days in a row at the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo with a good friend of mine, Rick McCumber and every day about every two hours “The Arbuckle Boys” would come on stage and sing “Ghost Riders in the Sky”.
After a deluge of this one day Rick said … “hey cardboard cowtoonist I got and idea” … and the rest they say is history.
“GOAT RIDERS in the Sky” was created

This was a cartoon I did back in 1996 and has always been one of my personal favorites. Had a pup that went by the name of Bingo and so the name kinda stuck.
