No, no, no. Arenīt you supposed to get ON the horses, and chase a FOX?
Sorry. My mistake. They do it that way in England. In Japan, they chase the horses. I think I prefer this version. You donīt have to wear garish red clothes, or a silly hat, or explain to people afterward why it took 20 people
and 40 dogs to catch an animal that weighs EIGHT POUNDS. Maybe the people of Odaka once did it that way, too, but changed the rules to save face.
