About
Guy Spanking Himself Watching Horse Racing refers to a viral video of a man miming the motions of a jockey while watching horse racing. Such motions are seen in the audiences of Kentucky Derby-style races where viewers and sports betters engrossed in the game start bending over and mimicking the movements of the horse rider. This particular video went viral due to the over-the-top and unsubtle motions of the man watching the horses race, with viewers drawing attention to him repeatedly spanking himself on the butt, at one point even switching hands to spank his left cheek. The video first went viral on Twitter / X and Reddit in 2019, before becoming the subject of memes in 2024.
