OH, DEER! 
Spectators at the Meadows Racecourse in western Pennsylvania recently got a surprise addition to the race card when three deer jumped the outer fence and ran up and down the track just as the horses were about to go out for the ninth race.

Local announcers Roger Huston and Jeff Zidek did a great job of keeping fans amused during the enforced delay by offering commentary on the race between 'Bambi' and 'Rudolph' (there was no name for the backmarker), ultimately declaring Bambi 
the winner as they jumped back over the fence and into the forest. No bets were taken on the race between the deer, at least not officially!
