Last week, a young horse at the Chantilly Racecourse in France broke free of her rider and barged into a sports-betting bar about a mile away.
“She pushed the door open, and raced straight for the betting corner,” Stephane Jasmin, the owner of the Chantilly PMU bar, told Ouest France.
“We've never seen anything like it.”
Security footage from inside the bar pinpoints the exact moment the horse entered the establishment, causing patrons to jump up out of their seats and sprint out of the way.
The horse also begins bucking as it runs from one end of the bar to the other, while knocking aside a few chairs during a 15-second clip uploaded by Jasmin.
The horse’s trainer, Jean-Marie Béguigné, explained to Ouest France that the filly — who has a “penchant for escape” — made a dash for the road after her rider fell off somewhere between the track and the stables.

Horse was bucking to try to get the saddle off its haunches. NOT a happy horse. Needed someone familiar, some softly spoken words, and a gentle touch.
Maybe a carrot, or two.

A grasshopper sits down at a bar. The bartender tells him that they serve a drink named after him. The grasshopper says, “you have a drink named Steve?”

A horse walks into a bar, and orders a Martini from the bartender.
The horse then puts a $20 bill on the bar to pay for the drink.
The bartender serves the horse his drink, and figures that horses don’t know much about money, so he gives him back $8 in change. The bartender relaxes and leans over the bar and says “We don’t get many horses in here.”
The horse says “I don’t wonder at $12 for a Martini.”

I wouldn’t exactly categorize that as “wandering.”
Rampaging, maybe.
