The star of this year's iconic Budweiser Clydesdale Super Bowl ad is just a few weeks old. She is the company's newest foal, and is about to be thrust into the spotlight in front of an estimated Super Bowl viewing audience of more than 100 million people in the United States.

I am 73. I was about 10. When my school showed a film about the Budweiser Clydesdales. It was the story of how they selected the horses before their breeding program started. It told of a baby named Tony. I was racing at Cahokia Downs when the Clydesdale came. I told one of their grooms about the film. He ask if I remembered the horses name. I said he's name was Tony. The groom pointed to one of them and said, that's Tony. I went to touch him & lowerd his big head down to me.. i held his head and cried. The memory of that gentle giant has stayed with me all these years. Even as I write this I cry. Budweiser, you can't know how special these horses are to some of us. God Bless

My wife has 6 Clydesdales and sis inlaw has 4 Percherons. ALL of these "draft" horses truly are gentle giants, they even avoid stepping on their barn cat buddies! They all live at our place, along with a couple of Palaminos. We're blessed to have room for all of these beautiful animals!

I feel the same Lexi - I saw the Clydesdales every day as they pulled the waste from the Singer sewing machine factory in Clydebank, Scotland, to the waste ground at the back of the town. I was so lucky one day that the carter let me sit on the high seat and take the reins of his amazing Clydesdale. I have loved horses all my life but the Clydesdale most of all.

Several years ago I visited the Budweiser Stables at Sea World Orlando. There were no horses inside the stable building but when I left I noticed a baby and I assume it's mom in a fenced field so I went to observe. I'm a city boy, have never been near a real horse and was a bit scared when the baby saw me and came running over to see what I was about. Mom was gracious enough to allow me to meet both her and her baby and the city boy had touched and looked into the eyes of a horse for the first time in his 50 years!!!

I remember a few years back the Clydesdale horses would go to Fort Stewart Georgia and stay at a farm because they were marching in St Patty's Day Parade in Savannah civilians will come by to the farms and they were allowed to pet and take pictures of the these horses a couple days before they were schedule to march in the parade. Very beautiful gentle creatures .

I LOVE looking into a horse's eyes - you feel like you could just drown in them they are so expressive!!!

[@dancingkatiedid1362]

This makes me me think of my late dad and his horses (he did not raise Clydesdales, though). I always cry when I see them because I have heard how they are raised, much like how my dad raised his horses. They have huge personalities, just as my dad's horses did. When I see them, I step away from my adult children and I cry like those 1950s girls screaming for the Beatles and Elvis.

Our small little town of Washington, Oklahoma, had our 2nd Annual Christmas Parade last year. Clydesdale horses were pulling Santa on his sleigh. They stopped right in front of our house. This was such a magical moment for me. I actually had tears rolling down my face. What a beautiful and majestic species and the tradition still felt in our hometown!❤️❤️❤️

Such a majestic breed of horse. We used to have a stable at the Budweiser Plant in my home state of NH that housed some of the Clydesdales but I think they are no longer there. It was such a treat to visit the stables and see these beauties. They never disappoint! ♥️

I grew up in a Big City but we had horses growing up. We had horse until 1988 when my Dad passed away. He ran most of the Stables in the City. Growing up there was 1 wish my Dad wanted and that was to see the Budweiser Clydesdale Horses. So when they came to our City for a Parade I walked up to the People in charge and told them about my Dad they were so impressed with him that they not only let him see them but he was aloud to get on the Wagon and drive it around the block. It was one of the Best Moments of My Dads Life. I was so proud of my Dad and so Glad that I was able to do something for him. Given the fact that my Dad was always the person that did whatever he could for others. I was 23 when my Dad passed away but I'm so Glad I was able to give him that Wish. He said other than the Birth of Us 6 Children and the Birth of his Grandchildren (3) I gave him his 1st. The Budweiser Clydesdales was up there. I hope one day in the near future to move from the City to the South and get property and have horses and at least 1 or 2 Clydesdales. They're Beautiful Horses. I was Lucky to be able to ride one back when I was 14 it was a great experience I wish to share with my grandchildren some day. I Love the Budweiser Clydesdales.

Then, out of nowhere, here is this tribute to the victims of the 9-11 attacks, and it sucker-punched us all right in the open wound, and everybody was emotionally devastated. While everyone, especially Budweiser, was saying it was meant only as a tribute, a beautiful tribute, and not at all to promote the brand for profit, I say BULL! Everyone knows to whom the Clydesdales belong as a trademark. If Budweiser had truly altruistic intentions, they would have just kept totally quiet. Cruel and cynical exploitation of the tragedy is what this commercial was.

Amen, NFL let our veterans & Patriots down, plus the people who supported them thru the beginning years. Football season was my time to escape the world's worries, celebrate my Country & God. The owners & commissioners ruined that with allowing politics to dominate. I don't care if marchers or taking a knee people wished to protest Jack Frost, this should have been off limits. Shame on you in power I haven't watched a NFL game or sport show since that day & won't until the end of my life. You let a few people ruin an American tradition! Took tax payers money to build stadiums. I CONTINUE TO BOYCOTT NFL & products.

Dear Sally, Exactly what kind people are you surrounding yourself with? I’m serious, are you referring to your family and friends? Or just people in general? If it’s your friends and family, just please know that there are toxic/dysfunctional families every where! It’s perfectly fine to distance yourself from them... Or to completely cut the offending persons out of your life! Think about it this way, if you had a malignant tumor... What would your doctor do? (Hint:✂️ Cut it out, surgically remove it.) If it’s everyone in general that makes “you sad”, then the fault lies with you. You need to take a good look at yourself and change whatever you think needs changing. PLEASE NOTE: I’m not talking about getting a nose job or what you look like... I’m talking about you as a person, you on the inside! That’s what counts! I’m 61years old and I have seen comments extremely similar to yours hundreds of times! However, I have never felt compelled to say something before... I don’t anything about you, but rest assured: EVERYONE HAS PROBLEMS! LIFE SUCKS! THIS MERRY-GO-ROUND CALLED, “LIFE” DOESN’T STOP SPINNING UNTIL YOU’RE DEAD! For your own good and for the good of everybody around you please, stop your pity party. As far as l know we only get one life to live... If you don’t like the way it’s going... Do something to change/fix before it’s too late. I sincerely hope you get your act together. If you need help, get it. I sincerely hope that you’re able to make your life wonderful and happy. By the way, I’m talking to you the same exact way I would talk to one of my children. There are actually some pretty nice people in the world... Now you just have to go out and find them. I wish you the best of luck. ♥️☺️

One of my Dobermans had a brief romance of the heart with one of these gorgeous animals at an event some years ago. She leaned against his huge foreleg, and they nuzzled each other, for the 15-20 minute duration of the talk being given. They were on the news that night, and there were photos of them in both papers the next day. Gentle giants, most definitely!

I had a similar experience with newspaper clips. Contact the newspaper and ask for reprints. If you have the date (even approximate) they can probably locate the article. If that fails, go to a local library, most of the newspapers are archived and they can print a copy for you. Good luck.

[@salicemccool9268]

[@bonnieboren4649]

The stables certainly are incredible. When it is time for the babies, 1 man has video watch in every stall. In the caretakers home beside stables he has a room with nothing but screens. There are subtle signs when a mare is about to birth & he tries to be hands on every birth. It's his life & he and those majestic creatures live better than most people. Only race horses & polo ponies have it so good. I saw him interviewed & he is a lucky man. May this tradition last forever!💙

I’ve been around, worked, trained & owned horses my entire life. And I might be off, but it seems to me the larger the horse, the gentler they are with small children. Drafts, & draft-crosses are super gentle, loving & I’ve seenClyde’s & Belgians literally too toe near children. I once tried to rescue someone’s toddler girl who ran beneath the fence to get to a draft foal. Mama Belgian stood her ground & allowed the baby girl to pet her baby & then toddle beneath her belly & pet/pat it. She looked at me with the “come get this child” look that horses of all types are known for. I crawled beneath the fence, scooped up the little girl (whose mother wanted this moment as a PHOTO OP), & returned her to her mother. I sometimes think that draft would’ve made a better mother to the little girl…..

Please stop cutting their tails. It is a cruel pratice to cut horses tails. You take away from them the ability to switch flies and other insects of them. This is why Almighty God gave horses their beautiful tails. Here in Northern Ireland when we show Clydesdale horses, some owners shave the hair of the bottom of the tail, and then plat the rest of the tail, giving the same effect as a docked tail, and it looks just as well they also braid the top of the tail with ribbons, looks great. The docking of horses tails has been outlawed or illegal now since the late thirties. Please write to Budweiser a nd ask them to stop docking the horses tails, other ways of doing it. I know Budweiser looks after their horses well, I have no concerns about that, just the tail docking. Thank you very much for reading, happy Christmas to all you horse lovers. God bless. Greetings from Northern Ireland.

My maternal grandfather was a cobbler, who would and could fix anything leather. When I was a child, the Budweiser Clydesdales were to be in the opening parade for the Eastern States Exposition in my hometown of West Springfield, MA. Some tack needed fixing, and he was the go to for the Big E management. Papa D did such a good job, they gave him a plaque with a Clydesdale horse shoe on it.

Clydesdales are the most awesome horses in the world! And they have a certain grace when they trot. I can remember a friend with an allergy just couldn't resist petting a Clydesdale mare and telling her, "You're a beautiful lady, yes you are!" He later got sniffly and blotchy and he took his medicine, but he was too happy to care!
