Dallas Cowboys fan casually rides horse through Walmart after win

Talk about a celebration.

A Dallas Cowboys fan casually rode his horse through a Walmart after the Cowboys pulled off a 20-17 win against the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday at Arlington’s AT&T Stadium.

Wearing a Dak Prescott jersey and white cowboy hat, the man can be seen in a video purchasing a blue plastic bucket. Stunned employees follow him around the store, recording with their phones.

The mane and tail of the white horse are spray painted blue, obviously.

On Tuesday, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones addressed the horse-riding fan during his weekly radio show on 105.3 The Fan.

“I’ve literally been on a horse inside before,” Jones said. “It’s a dicey thing, because if that horse gets to slipping and sliding and kicking it’s a mess.”

According to Arlington city ordinance, it’s illegal to ride or herd horses on private property without the consent of the owner.

But as long as employees did not specifically ask the pair to leave, this cowboy committed no criminal offense, police spokesman Tim Ciesco said. Dispatchers received no calls about the horse.

A video posted by Yahoo Sports has received more than 30,000 views as of Tuesday morning. The caption reads, “Everything’s bigger in Texas.”

The response on social media was swift.

“Yo Cowboys fans are bred different,” one person said on Twitter.

Another quipped, “God forbid the Cowboys win a Super Bowl.”
