Five horses escaped from the St. Louis Renaissance Festival in Wentzville, Missouri. Three police officers, including an animal control officer, were nearby and rushed to Rotary Park to wrangle them up. A statement from the Wentzville police said the officers quickly teamed up to safely guide the horses back to their stable and assisted in repairing the fence to prevent any more escapes.
* And joust in the nick of time.
* Did they have to say, “Your steeds are returned, m’lady”?
* The cops were rewarded with a facepainting and a turkey leg.
* As a visitor to the Renaissance Fair, you can leave anytime. The horses are not so lucky. All the way back they kept going “Nay! Nay!”
* And they had such long faces.
