Funny one liners

I am looking to make some funny equestrian t-shirts and am looking for one liners that equestrians would love! What funny things does your trainer say? What would you LOVE on a shirt? These will be for riders at my Hunter/jumper barn, so jumping related ornjust horse related would be best!

How about just a simple:

OUTSIDE DIAGONAL DIAGONAL OUTSIDE

Maybe add a diagram of standard Hunter course?

I once saw a bumper sticker that said, “I train horses” in big letters, then underneath, in slightly smaller type, it said, “to eat carrots.” I’d buy a shirt with that on it.

I mean there’s a plethora of George Morris quotes to choose from.

“Distances are like men. Never take the first one you see…” - GHM
“You don’t have to reinvent the space shuttle, keep it simple.” - GHM
“Don’t be sheep.”- GHM
“I refuse to even look in your direction until you do something about that ponytail.”- GHM
“You don’t ride well enough to yawn.”- GHM
“Hospital or on!”- GHM
“If riding were all blue ribbons and bright lights, I would have quit long ago.”- GHM

Or:

“Were you counting?”
“Hips like a harlot.”
“Shoulders like a queen.”
“I do my own stunts.”
“Hay girl”
“One woman’s wrong lead is another’s counter canter.”
“Been there, jumped that”

I have always loved the saying, “Picking is for banjos.”

Sit up
Sit back
Shoulders back

Eyes up
Look up

Put your leg on

Heels down, eyes up

Honestly I’d prefer just the barn name.

(But @mmeqcenter’s Hay Girl did make me chuckle)

I saw a shirt recently that said Hunter’s like the…
then it had a picture of a D ring snaffle. I may have laughed too hard at this. I am not ashamed that my mind went dirty immediately. Probably not an appropriate shirt for a barn shirt but one I would sport on my own haha.

I had a T-shirt from Cafe Press that said that, years ago.

  1. Horses are like shoes. You need some in every color.

  2. Practice like you’ve never won. Perform like you’ve never lost.

This isn’t t-shirt material, but this week I heard my trainer as another student “Do you feel like you’re trying to turn him?” and had a hard time not laughing out loud.

My good mare owns a schooling baby pad embroidered with “I’m with stupid” and an arrow pointing to the saddle.

Horses. You can’t have just one.

Horses. You can’t have too many.

Horses are like potato chips. You can’t have just one.

I have one horse. That’s what I tell my husband.

(Same as above, with “wife”).

Horses should be free
because my board bills are killing me.

My car is not impressive but you should see my saddle.

(Maybe it would be better/more concise to say, My car sucks but you should see my saddle.)

I’m hoping for reins. We have a draught.
