Is Barbaro The Best? Boy I Guess!
Neigh! Yesterday was Zombie Barbaro’s fourth birthday, and about 500 fans crowded Delaware Park — where Barbaro won its first race — for an emotional tribute to the late horse. How big was the day? One person came from South Africa to celebrate Barbaro! The News Journal has a photo of Barbaro co-owner Gretchen Jackson “kneeling as if in prayer,” which must mean she’s… I dunno. Why would she pantomime a prayer? The best anecdote of the day, though, comes from the Inquirer’s Mike Jensen, who probably thought his days of covering Barbaro were over — but, no, he’s going to be writing about this damn horse for the rest of his life.
Can all the Barbaro fans get this tattoo? ‘Cuz then I’d be able to make sure any girl I meet in a bar isn’t a Barbaro fan. “Excuse me, before we begin talking, can I see your back?” Fans of Barbaro gather to celebrate his birthday [Inquirer] |

I enjoyed this comment at the News Journal:
“i heard they were going to make a commemorative glue”
Mike Jensen is possibly not the only one who will be writing about this damn horse for the rest of his life. ;-)
