so fucking lucky that no one was killed or injured and only one horse go trapped and only ended up with minor cuts and scrapes. Tornado came out of nowhere went over the top of the competition arena then touched down and hit one of the temporary barns which was full of people and horses and just lifted that sucker into the air about 30 feet and dropped it. One horse got trapped inside and the fire department had to cut the steel framing apart so we could drag the now sedated horse out. I saw the whole dam thing. As I was running to it I was on the radio to the show office telling them that barn 5 had collapsed and to call for vets and fire for injured people. Only two people were stuck inside and we got them out uninjured. In the first photo you can see where the barn used to sit on the dirt. And yes it was anchored down.
