Horses Winning The Real Gold Medal In The Olympics By Becoming The Mane-Event Of The Show

So, the Olympics are happening, and to be honest, there are only a few events that truly interest us. For some, it might be the gymnastics, for others, the running, but for us… the horses. Obviously. What else could you expect from Animal Comedy writers, right? But it's not just us this time! This time, the horses seem to have become the mane event of the show, and that's because not just are they talented, horses are also friggin' adorable.

This isn't the first time, of course, that an animal has stolen the show. We have seen cats take over cat walks, we have seen raccoons break into soccer fields and become the best moment of the show. But the horses here… they truly, undoubtedly deserve it. Because honestly, they work just as hard, if not harder, than their riders, and if they are not getting medals (which they should), then they should at least get the audience's favor.

We're glad to see that these athletes, despite putting years and years of effort into their craft, are not the only ones getting the credit. And the reason for that… is a tiny hat. A tiny, adorable, perfectly fitted hat that we have totally not been staring at for the past two minutes.

And a selfie. You would think small things as these would not have a massive impact, but you would be wrong. Because this is an awesome, one of a kind, selfie, and it totally deserves all of the viral attention that is has gotten over the past few days.
