And the Clydesdales kneel...

If only their beer was as good as their commercials

The Clydesdales were corralled at Jack Brooks Park, Hitchcock TX when appearing at the Galveston Mardi Gras. We ride there and my wife got to get up close and personal with those beautiful beasts. Hoofs as big as dinner plates, and then some.

Before he got married my dad who was an episcopal minister lived in a rectory in Toronto. He won a jingle contest and got a wagon load of beer delivered by the Clydesdales to the rectory. Mid 1940s I think.
