Newcastle - happened at a football game some years ago

You can instantly tell it's Newcastle without knowing the exact point on the map, because it's the same place that is "shirtless"

Wait, that actually happened?? Hahaha I feel bad for laughing though, poor horse.

Back in 2013 - there's video of it.

The horse was fine and died at the age of 21 after a pleasant retirement.

Wow thanks for the link! It seemed too ridiculous to be true, but I'm not surprised it was a drunk sports fan 🤦‍♀️

And no-one in the UK is surprised it was a Newcastle fan!

As an American, is Newcastle yalls Florida?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Think more Maine than Florida. Cold dark winters with lots of beer and whiskey.
