Genuine Reward...on Craigslist?

Anne Eberhardt posted this on FB trying to spread the word. Apparently he can be yours for $500. I'm not sure they get how to retire a horse or how this is a good way to ensure a safe and secure retirement home for Genuine Reward. :confused:

WOW

I know when I'm no longer useful after years and years of service, thats how I'd like to leave my home...

Update: "Due to an overwhelming response we are no longer considering new inquiries about Genuine Reward. Thanks to everyone who has offered to help with his retirement."

So many people posted a link on Old Friends' FB page, without looking to see if anybody else had. If Michael Blowen's ears weren't burning, I'd be surprised. Sounds like something should work out, where we don't know as yet.

It would be nice if they could update us on where he eventually goes.

Old Friends thanked everybody for letting them know and said they're working on the details so it looks like a done deal. Apparently Laura Hillenbrand is involved with his purchase. Steve Haskin posted a photo on FB of Mandy with Genuine Risk and a baby Genuine Reward and thanked Laura and Michael.

Hooray!

Here's the NYTimes piece from 1993, about his birth:

Great news

Insert joke about legacy admissions here. ;)

(Seriously though, it's great news. Props to Laura Hillenbrand for sponsoring him)
