Ok, so I get an IM from a friend of mine at Wesleyan college around 8:45 saying that the Budweiser Clydesdales were staying the night in their stables on the way to florida for some publicity whatever. Anyway, she invited me to come see em (the student body didn't find out until that evening because they didn't want to stir up a lot of ruccus). Those are some beautiful animals! And freakin huge too! lol. Anyway, here are some pics! Enjoy.

4. Donkey (oh ya, the donkey was there too lol)
5. My roommate with horse

hahaha, nice. It was a tear jerker ;)
 
The Clydesdales live the STL baby, AB capital. They have a stable next to the brewrey in downtown STL, they also have stable at Grant's Farm where they breed the Clydesdales if anyone ever comes to STL I definitly recommend going on a tour.
 
Those are sweet pics. I saw them when i was in St. Louis visiting family in '95. Went to the brewery. I knew they were big horses but holy s*** i wasnt expecting them to be that big. And i dont know why but that donkey kicks ass.
 
my roommate was with me, and said "I would totally ride one of those things into battle." lol (evil)
