“I was just trying to make people smile and laugh,” said Woody Fields, one of the riders.

Fields and his friends ride every weekend and they just wanted to try something different, so they rode their horses into Walmart for two minutes.

"I wasn't trying to hurt nobody or do anything destructive. It was just like you only live once. That's it. That's all,” Fields said.

Walmart wasn’t too happy. They issued a statement saying, “We in no way condone yesterday's reckless stunt inside our store and are thankful no one was hurt by these actions."

The Houston Humane Society issued the following statement:  “At minimum, riding a horse inside a store is incredibly irresponsible. This would be extremely stressful on any horse. Horses can easily become spooked, endangering not only themselves, but also any shoppers they might encounter. The Houston Humane Society urges all pet owners to think and act responsibly when it comes to the lives of animals in their care."
