@MickD

Thank you for sharing this-we watched the pregame show and we always think it is magical. 

Fun fact-the harnesses that the Cydesdales wear have to be custom made for each horse and weigh approx. 130 pounds each!  From what we were told on a FREE visit to Anheuser Bush if you ever get the chance to tour the brewery, the harnesses are lifted by crane and the horse is walked into his personal harness!  Those harnesses are huge close up.  I can't imagine 130 pounds around an animals' neck but these horses make it look easy as they prance around the ball field or anywhere you get to see them.

@mustang66lady that is amazing about the harnesses!  I live in CA.  Should've visited before I moved from Chicago.....hahaha!  They are stunningly beautiful though!

Thank you, @MickD!  Beautiful animals and so well trained.  Loved the organ music playing the Budweiser theme and - of course - the Arch backdrop!
