Budweiser Clydesdales find temporary home at fairgrounds

Sometimes it's hard enough to find a hotel that allows pets, let alone a hotel that allows animals with hooves the size of dinner plates.

Luckily for the Budweiser Clydesdales, they fit right in at the Rock County 4-H Fairgrounds.

The draft horses are staying at the fairgrounds in anticipation of their weekend appearance at Southern Wisconsin AirFEST. Mary Check, the fair's office manager, says 4-H exhibitors don't show horses that large so the Clydesdales are set up in an empty barn with their own stalls and tack.

Check says the public is welcome to visit the horses Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 11am to 7pm.
