I love this Citation Needed for the dryly obvious explanation trope.

Used to drive me crazy that there would be these huge anachronisms literally blowing around the sets when I would watch Western movies as a kid. IвЂ™m surprised that no one here pointed out the fact that tumbleweeds (Salsola tragus) didnвЂ™t arrive in the United States (from the steppes of Russia) until about 1870 and thus were not present during the actual time that Western movies portray.

I used Google News BEFORE it was clickbait ( talk) 16:37, 26 January 2015 (UTC) In fact tying horses to rails set up outside bars-rooms may account for the practice of ditching them later in the Horse Latitudes. Oddly mornings never take place in westerns, they are a little like herding cows, getting covered in flies or/and watering and feeding horses in that respect. These days (with digital watches and radio signals) noon is not so important. 172.69.62.232 05:31, 2 January 2019 (UTC)ДЄ significant part of old fashioned shoot-outs is their timing, which was often based on the Tumbleweed Metric. The horse latitudes are where there are strong currents that are used in preference to winds that are often very light or non-existent. When this is desirable (and the winds contrary or light) then the sails can be taken down. the real origin of the name comes from the nautical term of a ship being вЂњhorsedвЂќ when it is running with the current rather than with the wind. Um, NO! Even if we would allow the folk-entomology of the horse latitudes being where ships became becalmed and ran low on water and were forced to sacrifice their horses, they would hardly be the place where вЂњSpanish Sailors came to ditch their horsesвЂќ like that was something that Spanish sailors did. There has been a lot of bad feeling between the Spanish speaking original inhabitants, especially in Cowifornia because they speak Spanish and are not confined to Mexico or open prisons in USA. I think they washed up on the beaches at Cowifornia hence the need for survivors of old west shoot-outs to head there. The subtropical ridge is also the Horse Latitudes where Spanish sailors would often go to ditch horses. but not me, as I don't fully get it myself.

Discussion However, given that prevailing winds go from West to East, that means that the tumbleweed would be unable to tumble into the sunset, thus meaning it cannot reenact this trope no matter how hard it tries. The title text refers to a common trope in Westerns to have the hero (or in this case, the tumbleweed) ride (roll) into the sunset at the conclusion of the film. It then shoots both of the gunfighters simultaneously, winning the duel. The tumbleweed then rolls past, and pulls a pair of revolvers. In this comic, the two gunmen, as per the cliche, stand quietly. Commonly, to accentuate the silence and dreariness of the scene before the fight, a tumbleweed would roll past the fighters. Shootouts were common in many old Western films, most famously in spaghetti Westerns. Title text: The tumbleweed then tried to roll off into the sunset, but due to the Old West's placement north of the subtropical ridge, the prevailing winds were in the wrong direction.
