Was just thinking about it, I could write a book on it, but my most embarrasing moment was when I was 18, (many moons ago), I had a beautiful IDXtb blue and white gelding, that really was just a hunter, but i made it my mission to show jump him. We had being going well, and there was a local show, coming towards end of season, so jumps a bit bigger, way before measured classes, this was grade E at the time, if anyone remembers. Anyway, all my friends and one particular neighbour, who was into horses, elderly man, decided to come and watch me, after all the success stories. Unfortunately, some moron decided to whack Mannix on the arse on the way into the ring, so we were flat to the boards from the start. he blew pole after pole away in front of him, stopped at tripple, and at 27 faults, and another refusal, the guy in the box asks me over the intercom "Do you want to continue?" Of course I want to continue, cos I'm so mad at this horse at the time, if there was 25 jumps on the course, he was going over them. Have never yet been that embarrassed in my life, although, there have been a few nearlys!!!
Would love to hear your most embarrasing stories!!!!!!
