| Water Hose Rodeo | comment |
A character is out in their yard, about to wash their car, or water their lawn. They grab the hose, turn it on, and are suddenly flung around like a ragdoll. That's what you call a Hose Rodeo. This is incredibly common in cartoons. It's been featured in nearly every animated children's show to ever air on TV, from Looney Tunes, to Scooby-Doo. There are many variations on this, ranging from the hose simply being inexplicably powerful, to it being the fault of another character, who rigged it to happen. Occasionally this can cross over with Garden-Hose Squirt Surprise, depending on the number of characters in the scene. Sister Trope to Fire Hose Cannon. |

Happens quite frequently in Looney Tunes. Most of the characters have had this happen to them at one time or another. "Chaser on the Rocks" sees the Coyote smashed into the wall of a cliff as a result of one. | |

Mr. Bogus This happened in the episode "Meet Mr. Bogus", though Bogus used it more as a tactic to get rid of the crafty lawn workers. This happens to Mole in "Et Tu, Brattus?" as he starts getting thrown around by the water pressure of the hose. |
