Yesterday, the Lost Dryer Sock was spotted riding a horse in the Equestrian event at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

                              “I didn’t really know what to make of it at first glance,” says Sue Spignoli, equestrian judge and part-time belly dancer.   “The sock was riding the horse with reckless abandon during the jumping portion, in which he knocked over poles, a cameraman and a peanut vendor near the finish line.  However, during the horse ballet, the sock and horse performed multiple elegant moves which can only be categorized as a cross between Baryshnikov and Mr. Ed French kissing in the front window of a New York deli on a moonlight summer night.  Beautiful.”

                       The Lost Dryer Sock was subsequently disqualified from the Equestrian event when the horse broke tradition by accepting a dollar bill that was stuffed into its G-string by one of the other equestrian judges.  And then as quickly as it had appeared, the Lost Dryer Sock was gone from sight, exiting the venue with a Pegasus-like maneuver.
