Barbaro Museum Defeated After All
The news of the day: Local hero Barbaro, a horse who showed the world he could inspire Internet anger long after he finished everything on his bucket list, will no longer have a museum built in his honor. His co-owner Gretchen Jackson says she is close to figuring out where Barbaro’s ashes will be buried. (She did not announce anything about a horse her and her husband Roy bred, George Washington, who was sent to stud before it was determined it couldn’t sire. The horse raced again and was destroyed after he broke down in the Breeders Cup.) The museum idea is on ice right now, but there is going to be a big ol’ statue of Barbaro people will probably end up caring a lot about. If it’s life-size, could people get to pretend to ride Barbaro? Oh, man, that would be awesome! Barbaro is so much better in statue form. |

“Breeded”? Come on now.
drag, i thought i fixed that paragraph before anyone noticed. stupid server.
Some people (like you) are just jerks.
The only ones that failed George Washington were his current owners. The Jackson’s had nothing do to with the decision to bring him back or to race him in that mud pit on Breeders Cup Day.
