Thatโs right, folks. Frick, the undisputed Queen of Sass and reigning diva of Wichita Riding Academy is finally gracing the public with her presence. Sheโll be holding an exclusive meet-and-greet with her adoring fans this weekend at the Central Kansas Reptile Expo at the Kansas Star Arena. (Because where else would a queen go to inspect the local scales? ๐)โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
Now, before you even ask: No, you ๐๐๐ง๐ง๐จ๐ญ ride Frick. She is far too pretty for manual labor, and honestly, sheโs appalled you even thought about it. ๐
๐ดโฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
However, in her infinite generosity, she has authorized some of her best equine friends to do the heavy lifting. Weโll be offering pony and horse rides for the kids for just $5 a ride, an absolute steal to mingle with Frick's royal entourage!โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
As if that wasn't enough, weโre also bringing a ton of the WRA baby goats and sheep for you to feed and fawn over.โฃโฃ
โฃโฃ
So come on down this Saturday and Sunday! Get your reptile fix, give the kids a pony ride, feed some adorable farm babies, and most importantly... come pay your respects to Queen Frick. See you there! ๐๐๐ฆโฃโฃ
