Did I Miss Something?

"Pickens, who made the gift through her National Wild Horse Foundation, said she was very pleased by the SMU fans’ response. “I think what you saw was an extraordinarily enthusiastic crowd. You saw what happened when the horses came out. [The crowd] went crazy. When the horses bowed it brought the house down.”"

To bring up something that people will get all pissy about...but I didn't hear anything when the horses came out. I heard a smattering of polite applause at the most. I walked away thinking that was the last time we see the horses on the field, but a nice philanthropic gesture. Too much booze?

You must remember that she thinks that mascots should not be "naughty boys." The golf course (or opera house)-style applause must be her idea of the crowd going crazy.
