Mechanical Jellyfish????

Above is 2010 and last years Virginia Tech commercial. Note that is has our favorite horse, doing our favorite horse activity. I was going to try and explain the Horse On A Treadmill to an Auburn fan during the Bama game last weekend, and noticed that in the VT commercial that it was not there. It seems that the notorious H.O.A.T. that we know and love has been replaced with a mechanical jellyfish in a pool. What's that about? This has Jim Weaver's stink all over it.

It was previously stated in an earlier thread that there is rumor of an underwater dog on a treadmill.

A U-DOAT, if you will.

Rumor?

Upvote, but I was expecting a fully submersed dog in a scuba dog suit

We could call him Scuba-Doo!

Looks like your time might be up Horse. If you see Weaver you better gallop away as fast as you can...

I've got some never-seen-before footage of a grey horse on the treadmill. I feel like I'm sitting on a pot of gold.

I'll start the bidding at one turkey leg.

Sold! You better not have video of my filly...

You better not take this for granted.

So is this basically Baywatch for horses?

A few years ago my beagle had to have emergency back surgery as a result of a ruptured disc. I was freaking out, until I met with the vet neuro specialist and saw that he had graduated from VMRC. I was all good after that, and so was my furry buddy. He even did some of the rehab exercises that are shown there :-)

Every Vet I've used in VA thus far has been a grad of our Vet-med program. One of them was even named Dr. Beamer. Needless to say, they were our favorite.

Emergency room vet in Fredericksburg is actually from NCSt. He's a good one too.

It was a catch

Can I change my name to "Mechanical Jellyfish"?

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

who remembers when that solar house was on dietrick lawn. Remember taking the drunk bus back and being mystified by its changing colors as i stumbled back to WAJ past it.

I remember when that was just finished being built, and playing football beside it.

The mechanical jellyfish is something they've been working on for a few years now.... a buddy of mine worked on it for his ME senior design project.

I thought this screenname would last forever, but it looks like I'm going the way of Furrer4Heisman.

Horse, you are immortal on TKP, don't go changin' a thing.

I don't know if there are enough characters but TheArtistFormelyKnownAsHorseOnATreadmill is catchy
