Breakin’ the Law Bus Hold Up
Breakin’ the Law Bus Hold Up
The Roughriders will come to your party, select (3) random individuals (unless of course you know some more well deserving individuals) and line them up for a death defying competition. Those chosen participants (3) will be shot on site, of course with blanks. As they fake their way to their untimely end on a safety pad, they will be judged by their peers for the most entertaining death

Breakin’ the Law Bus Hold Up
Arriving by bus? How about a welcome that truly takes your guests by surprise? Picture two lawmen walking out into the road halting your buses by a flurry of gunfire and then boarded. They are there for one purpose, to find the individuals that have been predetermined. After introducing themselves and welcoming everyone, the suspects will be identified and announced that they are being arrested. Then the suspects will be removed at gunpoint and hauled off of the bus to your party’s location. Number of performers will vary upon the amount of buses.
Arrest-A-Guest

Have your party honorees, manager, CEO or entire executive committee arrested by Marshal Hannibal, and back-up if need be. Arrests come complete with a frame worthy arrest warrant, a trial and a first class hanging … well just a bit of embarrassment instead of the hanging.
