For one thing, he likes to travel light.
And for another, he’s as moody as all get-out!
In this saddle-stacking game, you never know when Buckaroo will
buck, and send the gear flying in all directions. So be real careful
as you load him up, pardner. One buck, and you’re out of luck!
OBJECT
Load gear onto Buckaroo without making him buck. If he bucks,
or if any gear falls off, you’re out of the game. To win, load the last
piece, or be the last player left in the game.

How to Play
The youngest player goes first by
gently resting the saddle on
Buckaroo’s blanket, as shown
in Figure 4. Play then continues
to the left.
ON YOUR TURN
Carefully hang or place one piece
of gear (your choice) on Buckaroo.
Place the piece on the saddle— either
on one of the hooks, or on another
piece of gear that’s already there.
As you place the piece, don’t touch Buckaroo. You don’t want to do
anything to set him off!
If he bucks while you’re placing the piece; or if that piece, or
any other piece, falls off of him, you’re out of the game!
If Buckaroo bucked, push his bottom down again and lock him
into place, as shown in Figure 3. Return any bucked-off gear to
the pile next to Buckaroo. Now it’s the next player’s turn.
If no pieces fall off, and Buckaroo doesn’t buck, good for you!
You’re still in the game, and it’s the next player’s turn.
Two Ways to Win!
Keep taking turns trying to load gear onto Buckaroo’s saddle, until
one of the following happens:
A player successfully places the last piece of gear.
That player wins the game!
OR
Only one player remains in the game. That player wins!
Storing Your Game
When you’re done playing, carefully lift Buckaroo’s front feet off the
base. Then place all of the game parts into the box, for easy storage.

2.
Slide the side switch (see Figure 2) to the skill
level you want: 1, 2 or 3. The higher the skill
level, the more sensitive Buckaroo will be,
and the more likely he’ll be to buck!
3.
Attach Buckaroo’s blanket by fitting
the tab into the groove in his back.
See Figure 2.
Note:
The blanket will not lie
flat on Buckaroo’s back.
Get Ready!
1
. Place Buckaroo on a flat surface, with
the pile of gear off to the side where
everyone can reach it.
2.
Push Buckaroo’s bottom down until
his back legs touch the
base. Then push his tail
down to lock
him into
place. See
Figure 3.
Gently remove
your hand so
that you don’t
accidentally
make him buck!
The First Time You Play
Remove the game parts from their plastic
wrappings. Discard the wrappings.
1.
Attach Buckaroo’s front legs to the
base, by sliding the foot tabs forward
into the runners. Then press the feet
all the way down, until they snap into
place, and slide back. See Figure 1.
You’re loadin’ a whole mess of gear
onto this mule for a trip to the gold
mines. And any second now, you
just might find out why the folks in
these parts call him Buckaroo.
