Our local fair brought the Lipizzaner show in this year instead of some big name concert. YEAH! Tickets were not too bad at $10 a head. I know for certain the stallions were in their stalls since at least Monday although they did lunge them every day, and it certainly showed. Several times I thought the rider was going to be bucked off, one got going pretty good, and one decided he'd had enough of the ring and hightailed back to the stalls at a gallop. They brought him back out, and started the whole routine again. It was very obvious that these guys needed a few days off in a field. But it had some good moments, and of course they are gorgeous. Some folks started applauding when the one started bucking - I think they thought it was part of the act!
