Calamity Kris Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Those draft horses are enormous!! Lucky for the trucker they were able to help him.
Noz Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I grew up near the end of horse power. The Ozark Empire Fair always had a horse pull event in which the team that could pull the most weight won. They pulled a sled loaded with sacks of concrete. At the end of the even when the biggest horses had pulled the most weight possible. The gates would open and a local man with his team of Holstein Bulls would come in and hook onto the heavily load sled, that the horses had failed on, and pulled it out of the arena.
Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Those horses are the real deal!
Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Ok, does that constitute four horsepower or what?
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I worked a summer for a Mennonite man my father had worked for. He had two "sins of pride": a pair of gigantic Belgians and four big mules. Those animals were his pets and he often pulled stone boats with them at county fairs and farmers' "get together" fairs. He seldom lost a match.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Watch out for ROAD APPLES though. Those draft horses leave some big ones behind.
Harvey Mushman Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Wonder what Mayor Blasio would have to say about them.......?
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Give him a year's supple of road apples. Tell him they're health food.
