WEG opening ceremonies on now!

Hmmm, mine’s still not back.

goes off to close/reopen browser

Ali looks embalmed.

Aaargh! Lost the feed and can’t get it back, Dammit! I want to see everything, and a fellow COTHer has a horse in the ceremonies, bringing in the Great One, Ali!

its back up !!

It’s back up, but I think you missed your friend & her horse, Foundationmare. :frowning:

Hey Foundationmare, I found a Twitpic for you! It’s not very good but…

I really liked the Saddlebred/Road Horse segment, the set up of the Kentucky County Fair Saturday night with people in 1940s garb, the presentation of unmatchable horses, and the cameo from William Shatner. I bet it was even better to see in person and I doubt what was shown on the internet feed was under any control of anyone doing the demonstartions.

Now have time to do dishes and catch up on college FB scores.

I had to go first to just http://www.usefnetwork.com to get connection back, then scroll down to select live feed to get back on.

I liked Wynona and she is a native Kentuckian and she is a horse person. Ali is from Ky but no connection to horses at all. I’m just thrilled I can watch anything horse on my computer :slight_smile:

Princess Haya gave a great speech I thought!

I think it’s a bit creepy myself.

Hey, it’s a ‘production number’ complete with Andalusian horse and dancing ballerinas, but at least they are showing the horse, not the musicians so much.
sigh…

I am impressed by the dancers performing in a now no longer very smooth outdoor riding arena.

I do wish the camera persons would stop showing just the dancers’ armpits.

I’ve seen the horse before on YouTube and he’s actually a lot better than this as a general rule. The atmosphere’s clearly getting to him.

not digging the musical number could have been done better

Just wow on the West Side Story number.

And now… opera? Okay.

Carmen, you ignorant slut.
