Clydesdales put in a five-day hitch at the fair

The iconic Budweiser Clydesdales returned to the Orange County Fair this summer after a two year hiatus.

The powerful horses, known for pulling 1 ton loads, were first bred in the 1800s in Scotland, according to the Anheuser-Busch website.

In recent years, the Budweiser Clydesdales have become staples at fairs around the country and have starred in widely acclaimed Super Bowl commercials.

The Budweiser Clydesdales, with their signature white legs and black mane, were on exhibit at the fair from Aug. 6-10. The fair ended Sunday.
