This is considered a tame night on 6th Street.  [this would never happen in DC]

Two men were arrested for driving while intoxicated on 6th Street Friday night. One was riding a horse, while the other was riding a mule.

Let us repeat that.

One was riding a horse, while the other was riding a mule.

It gets better.

Austin police say the men were both intoxicated. They were apparently trying to lure people out of bars and into the street to take pictures with them and their farm animals.

In case you were wondering, “in the City of Austin it is legal to ride a horse on a public street.”
