Another episode of the themed schooling dressage shows was aired September 11, 2016 at the Mid-South Dressage Academy (MDA) near Hernando, Mississippi. “It was a nice, quiet show,” commented Duck Commander, er …MDA President Elizabeth Clifton. Riders weren’t required to sport a beard, but showing in camouflage was an option. We just want to know one thing: whose wife made the best cornbread for lunch?
