Without horses, salt licks would only dissolve in rainstorms and in the mouths of salt-deficient humans seeking to restore their serum-sodium levels to at least 135 mEq/L. Celebrate our hoofed counterparts with today's Groupon: for $18, you and a friend each get a one-hour horseback ride (up to a $36 value) at Pine River Stables in St. Clair.
Pine River Stables sprawls along 100 acres of outdoor riding space. The one-hour guided ride for two lets reluctant riders and adept jockeys alike hop aboard their choice of Pine River Stables' sleek stallions, such as the 75% cacao-colored Toni or the muscular-forearmed Benny, and explore the area’s pastures and wooded trails. Gallop down a small hill built on a heap of old refrigerators, hurtle across an open meadow, or traverse the borders of Pine River Stables' creek to peek down at its wild inhabitants. Pine River Stables is open April through November but is closed on Wednesdays, in the event of bad weather, and on Horse Christmas.
Rates at Pine River Stables vary throughout the week. Plan your trip ahead of time to get the most value out of your Groupon.

The Groupon Guide to: Choosing a Boxing Nickname
There is no point in boxing if you don't have a good nickname. In fact, most fights are called on account of dominant pseudonym, in which the nickname allows the judges to know who the better fighter is before the bout has even begun. Here is a guide to finding your nomme de lutte:
- If you suffer from hair-trigger nosebleeds, then your nickname is:
Bloodstorm - If you told all your friends that Bruce Willis was a skeleton the whole time, then your nickname is:
Spoiler Alert - If you punch people really hard in the face, then your nickname is:
Dr. Punch-Hard, Attorney at Jaw - If you are two kids posing as an adult, hoping to use the prize money to save the rec center, then your nickname is:
A Marketable Screenplay; Contact My Agent, Gene Lamplight - If you fight in a violent manner, raging like a bull, then your nickname is:
Dr. Punch-Hard, Attorney at Jaw
