Only in England: Shetland pony strolls into bar …

You know the old joke: So, a Shetland pony walks into a bar …

OK, if that is not actually a thing, it will be soon enough because a pony really did walk into a pub in England this week.

Metro.Co.UK reported (and we use that term loosely) the pony named Mocha strolled in, clopped around and had a few drinks before the pub owner lured him back outdoors with treats.

Bar snacks work on animals, too. Good to know.

In all fairness, Mocha lives in the garden out back and pub patrons are used to seeing him. The little guy has also made his way indoors twice in five years.

He probably doesn’t have a tab.
