“The reason people can ride horses on the street and it’s legal is because they fall under the definition of ‘vehicle’ in the transportation code.”
Gabriel C. Pérez / KUT
Sam Grey Horse (in Santa suit) and Nico Leophonte ride mules along East Cesar Chavez Street on Sunday.
From KUT:
It’s a beautiful Sunday morning in Austin and I’m struggling with a recorder in one hand and a mic in the other. The rest of me is riding a mule. That’s right: a mule.
The scene gets weirder. The man riding another mule next to me is dressed as Santa Claus. His name is Sam Grey Horse.
