Apparently there is a condition called equinophobia, which is the fear of horses. I never knew such a thing existed, but thanks to Eric Berry, that’s all changed.
In this hilarious video shown on Showtime’s “Inside the NFL,” the Kansas City Chiefs safety is seen avoiding a horse that was riding around on the field before the Chiefs’ game with the Oakland Raiders.
Some of his quotes as he’s avoiding the horse were fantastic. Via Kissing Suzy Kolber:
“Aw hell nah, there go that horse. I don’t f*ck with that horse.”
“The horse. I gotta wait ’til the horse pass. I don’t mess with horses, bruh. Straight up. Might come over here and throw a tantrum.”
“Hold up, coach, that horse out there. That horse. Oooh, she need to go on ahead with that horse. I don’t fool with no horses, boy. Hell nah.”
Eric Berry could have 20 interceptions in a season and set a record for most sacks by a safety, and none of that would matter. From now on, he will be known as the football player who is terrified of horses.
