Cigar
April 1990-October 7th, 2014
As I am sure many horse people know, hall of fame racehorse Cigar died yesterday after surgery.
I was lucky enough to meet the handsome stallion at the Kentucky Horse Park several times over the years. The first time I believe I was 14 or so. I would have to look back at my old photos, but I even had the chance to have my picture taken with him.
The last few times was in 2009 and then last year (2013).
Godspeed Cigar.
Such a magnificent athlete and awesome ambassador at the Kentucky Horse Park.
He truly was amazing!
