Too true!! Just today! I was on my way out with breakfast and lost a boot in the mud. Lost my balance and the grain, too. The horses, once again entertained by the goofball human, were not impressed tho if laughter has an equine voice it would have been in full chorus : )

The person below me handles their own horse at an event (no groom).

True-ish? I've never shown but I've done a few events with 4-H in the past, and I have always done my own grooming/tacking/warming up/etc. Unless you have several horses or important duties (you are on some sort of event panel or something), I really don't see why you wouldn't handle your own ;)

The person below me has jumped in a western saddle. (Ouch...)
