I am trying to locate a mechanical bull on Oahu.

Does anyone know a place/bar/anything with a mechanical bull that is in use?

Try Buddy Gibson at the Town and Country Stables, just accross from the Olomana Golf links, in Waimanalo. He used to have real bullriding, and buckouts.

Of course, I haven't been home in over twenty years, so this may be a bit outdated.

Bumping this old thread, 'cause I've gotten this random inquiry recently. Are there any? This Donnelly column from 1996 (http://starbulletin.com/96/06/20/features/donnelly.html) says Hawaii's "first" mechanical bull was at Buffalo Bud's Bar & Grill in the Aloha Tower Marketplace... but that it was just a prop. Are these things really rendered impractical because of insurance costs? I would've thought there'd otherwise be a decent market for cowboy stuff these days.
