Eddie Macon's Run

---

And we hope you're enjoying this performance

of the Huntsville Prison Rodeo.

These inmates and Cowboys have trained hard all year long to put on

an exciting show for you. I know you've seen a lot of action so far.

And you'll see more to come.

We'll have more for you in just a moment.

Okay next up in shoot number 5

is an inmate cowboy named...

Eddie Macon, a young man out

of the state of Florida.

He'll be trying his luck on an old horse called Sailor.

Sailor is in the shoot Eddie gets down on him...

puts his hand in the rigging, pulls

himself up real tight and out they come.

Pretty hard on the first jump, second jump,

the Cowboy had a little hard luck.

Well, Eddie receives a no time,

he's limping off folks...

but I don't believe he's seriously hurt, the

medics will check him out anyway to make sure.

Now if you'll turn your attention to shoot number 4, we have

a young man there named Albert Regland from Lovet, Texas.

He'll be attempting to ride an

old pony called Davy Crocket.

Here, hang on to this, will you Fred?

Here you go, son.

No you keep it, I got 300

miles to stay awake.

I have to see if the ward wants some men.

Yeah, you do that.

I use one trash bag to

ditch my con clothes in,

the other one I put my own clothes in to keep

them dry when I have to cross the border

If it does get real cold at night and if I

get my clothes wet I'll probably freeze

I don't want you to go.

It's just in case Chris.

Just in case what?

To escape from Huntsville means that if

they catch you you'll never get out again.

6 hours ain't possible.

Sergeant you got liquor on your breath,

I'll have your job and your ass together.

Now get on over here right now.

Logan here.

This is Marzach.

Good morning Marzach.

I hear you guys lost one.

That's right.

And I ain't got time to talk about it now.

We have revolution at that damn rodeo.

The damn warden and the

governor sitting right there.

You know what this makes me look like?

you guy got a name?

Macon,

Edward J.

Son of a bitch.

He ran before. That's right.

3 years ago.

Jumped off a transfer bus.

I was right there.

I nailed his ass right

on his own front porch.

Is he the one who gave you a beauty mark?

Oh, yes, warden.

Macon, Edward J.

I know it's not possible but

second time going through.

Look Mr. I am not a criminal

I don't belong in jail.

Calm down Sonny the bus

will be here any minute.

You don't want to miss

your first day of school.

Jesus Christ, can't you see

that's my wife and my kid.

I'm a decent person.

Oh sure, the jail is full ot hem.

Mr. look, I don't want to go to prison.

Daddy! Daddy! No!

We got the dogs all set up and we'll have

everybody out there ready to go at half an hour.

Why the hell did this bastard

run off on my shift.

Did you have a chance to talk

and make him a soulmate yet?

Man, I didn't have a chance to wipe my ass.

How did he get out?

I figure he hooked a ride on

one of the stock trailers.

There was 12 of them.

It's a joke.

I think you could use some expert assistance.

I need your help Marzack, I'll ask for it.

Meanwhile I'm busy.

You boys ready?

Yeah!

All right.

Any man who runs from Huntsville

twice got a be a dumb son of a bitch.

Now, let's get his ass!

How so.

They gonna get him.

No way.

That rabbit is behind those

bloodhounds right now.

All right. That's right

It's going to take more than

a bunch of cowboy horseshit.

Oh yeah.

Yeah

It's going to take a cop.

If I run 27 miles at night,

hide out and sleep during the day.

It's no different than

running four marathons in four days.
