Why not, it would probably only cost you a couple of DT Hats and a pair of HHH's lime green Chuck Taylors!

If he turns out to be sterile... it would cap off the fairy tale story.

Hartley and De Renzo plan to build The Green Monkey his own barn at the farm, and they are considering allowing special tours of the farm that will allow visitors to see The Green Monkey.

"I think people would like to see him," De Renzo said. "He’s a pretty special horse. His price was the most expensive in history, and he is a part of Thoroughbred history."


the 'we have more money than brains' part?

I can't imagine with the obsurd glut of proven stallions already available, that he'd see even one decent mare. He'll most likey turn out to be a serviceable 5K stud somewhere in Florida
