FACING a stampede of visitors is all in a days work for organisers of the Cheshire County Show, which attracts up to 70,000 people, but they saw red when charged at by ‘raging bulls’. 

Executive director of the Show Nigel Evans is no stranger to being surrounded by animals but he had his work cut out for him when he was faced with two ‘raging bulls’. 

To celebrate Gallagher Mitsubishi’s fourth year of support for the Show’s Light Horse Section Nigel agreed to pose with Mitsubishi’s Raging Bull pick up truck and a 15 month old bull Budworth Kaiser, named after the band Kaiser Chiefs, owned by the Show’s vice chairman Alan Ford’s son Rick. 

“Luckily the bulls behaved perfectly, but I wasn’t taking any chances,” joked Nigel. “One bull is scary enough, but two is beyond the call of duty. I would prefer to be amongst a herd of docile heifers though,” he admitted.  

The Mitsubishi 4x4 special edition L200 Raging Bull pick up will be on display at the Gallagher Mitsubishi stand at the Show on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 17 and 18. 

William Gallagher, Gallagher’s Mitsubishi group general manager, said: “We are delighted to be sponsoring the light horse section at the Cheshire Show again this year. 

“The show is one of the country’s leading agricultural events and we are proud to be associated with it.”
