Does this bring a smile to your face? Drunk Man Parks Horse in German Bank An early-morning German bank customer had a bit of a shock when he found a horse already in line at the automatic teller machine in front of him. It seems the horse's owner, identified only as Wolfgang H., had a bit too much to drink the night before and decided to sleep it off inside the bank's heated foyer, police said Tuesday. The 40-year-old machinist told Bild newspaper he had had "a few beers" with a friend in Wiesenburg, southwest of Berlin, and decided to hit the hay in the bank on his way home."It was late, it was already dark and cold," he was quoted as saying. Confronted with the lack of a hitching-post, he brought the 6-year-old horse, named Sammy, in along with him. When a customer came across the horse and sleeping rider in the bank at 4:15 a.m. Monday, he called police, who then came and woke the owner up and sent him on his way. No charges were filed, but there might be some cleanup needed: Apparently Sammy made his own after-hours deposit on the carpet. http://story.news.ask.com/article/20070425/D8ONC9R80.html photo: Horse next to sleeping owner

Well Heather I have to say that is certainly different lol But he is lucky that he has not been charged as it would have been classed as Drunk and disorderly there

Well....it worked.....another time of having to stretch my facial muscles into a form it is not familiar with..the dreadful smile.I presume this was not exactly New York City as most people do not take their horses as a mode of transport.Plus the bar that DOES have the hitching post would be interesting as well.Thank you for sharing.
