Ponies Around the World Round 4!


Elvis is a brony.  Who would have though?

62 images this time around!  I am honestly going to miss this event when it's over.  Sure digging through this tidal wave of emails is pretty time consuming, but It's actually really neat seeing all of these amazing locations.  I'm pretty sure I have talked about that enough though across the last three posts.  I really need to get out there!

A few maps of all the locations listed so far have popped up.  This one is a bit basic, but much more caught up, you can find it here!

The second one looks to be much more complex, but is still very much a work in progress on updates.  You can find it here!

I'm going to remind everyone one more time, If you haven't seen your image posted yet, please go and label it with the location/ a name (though name isn't required).  I'm filing all of the unlabeled ones into a folder for the last day of the event, and I'm not looking forward to labeling them all manually :p

PONIES EVERYWHERE!!!
Oh, hooray, the Venice pic that started it all is up there.
I loved the shots in Germany, it looks beautiful. But I suppose if I say that then I've got to add that our Neapolitan brony has a beautiful view too. Just looking at all the bronies and their ponies and their surroundings....I don't even know how to say how happy it makes me.
I love the whole world! It is just awesome.
Boom de yada!

Marcoooootje1 said...

Yush! Another awesome collection!

M1Abrams said...

Ponies everywhere! We really do have an influence in almost every country it seems. Keep it up folks, wish I had a toy to bring with me around the area to take some photo's. Too bad I'm lame and don't own any and haven't worked up the nerve to make and attatch a pony sticker to my work truck yet.

GabuEx said...

I love this event - no matter where you go, there are bronies. :) It's a small world after all!

Anonymous said...

So many Lethbridge bronies.

Blitz said...

Awesome pics as always, can't wait for the next set. :D

Though small complaint, in the maps with Pekin they marked the location wrong.
The park I was at was near Court St not Radio City Dr. Honestly didn't remember there was anything there because I don't head that way at all. Specifically I was at the Pekin Park District next to Court and 14th.
Pass that info onto whoever's doing the maps if you could, please. I just want the correct area to be recognized instead of somewhere across the city.

Peter Pony said...

I knew i should've sent in some pics of Holland...

Confound these ponies, they don't show up here enough!

...Also it's funny that i've visited pretty much all European places that have been posted.

Well, Hitler is a brony. Elvis being a brony is only logical.

Scribejay said...

Darn this event if this keeps up I'm gonna have to go buy an Applejack brushable and figure out where the nearest apple farm is.

Oh, it's only 2 hours away and there is a Target on the way. No! Your not driving out to a farm just to take a photo and probably buy some apple juice.

ShivalWolf said...

I need to get myself a little pony toy and go somewhere here and take photos. I haven't seen any Australia photos, or I'm blind.

#3 is Kuala Lumpur, Peninsular Malaysia, in front of the Petronas Twin Towers.

Except, not REALLY in front of them.

Glad my pics finally got up, and one as the header too :D

Hey another Filly brony!

Ponyj0 said...

Omg that is amazing! I love the Lethbridge brony pictures! I live an hour away from there! Glad to see more Albertan bronies!

Ah yes, Elvis impersonator #2306 is in fact a brony.

RusPony said...

33,34,35)
Hehehehehe!
I know this place!
It's near the metro, "Moscowskoje " and "victory Park".
Who are you, brony?

frith said...

Great set, with Elvis on top no less! Only the Vilnius (Lithuania) brony(ies) succeeded in outshining Elvis, with the Rarity plate and the FeRarity t-shirt and the devil-may-care nonchalance! X^D

Awesome #3 (Thailand?) is awesome and so is Stephen Magnet's Twilight Sparkle t-shirt.

I see I'm not on the map. That's what I get for ponifying the name of my town and province. 8^D

Monix said...

Was waiting for #9!

I'm hoping to go hit up some spots around New Orleans this weekend.

Anonymous said...

what's up with number 3, it looks like that person is holding twilight in front of an LCD screen.

Biopony said...

Yesyesyes, me and my brothers pics are up ^-^ (#7 and #10).

frith said...

@Anonymous (#3)

LOL! You're right! We'z ben had! And I thought the camera had been equipped with a polarizing filter. I must say, to get a sharper picture, I had considered using a post card as a back drop. Looks like #3 went for the LCD image. X^D

samus17 said...

53 n 54 here.
Yay! West coast best coast!

Mooke said...

We've seen all these cool photos of ponies in cool places, but Still no photos of ponies on the ISS (actually, would the space agencies even allow you to take a photo on the international space station?). :(.

Do we have any ESA/NASA/Roscomos bronies? could they give the hay or neigh on if ponies in space would be possible? (Ok, I'm not saying you have to be from those three agencies, just they were the only ones I could remember).


You know, part of me wants to go out and get a picture, but living in Plymouth, the closest thing to a landmark we have is a lighthouse, which isn't that interesting...

Wait, do you Americans consider the Mayflower important? I guess that the dock is kind of a landmark.... Still doesn't make much of a photo though...

Stupid Plymouth (England), why can't you build more crazy buildings?

Maybe when I'm at uni I can get a shot of something from London. Pony on the eye overlooking parliament? Still, that won't be still September.

#9: What do you mean it's not a landmark?

Anonymous said...

Bronys in Belfast!

I'm not alone! :'D

frith said...

@Cyberfox #9 -- The installation of that Bridlemaids billboard was certainly a landmark event. Good 'nough for me.

Anonymous said...

No one took a Calgary Stampede picture with Applejack yet?

Anonymous said...

Still none from the Netherlands? I swear, I'm taking a photo tomorrow. Even if it's a late submission, somepony has to represent Dutch bronies. They exist!

Jimbo said...

OMG, another Disneyland brony! How many of us went to the park and missed one another, I wonder?

Stargazer said...

That first picture is really funny, That person dressed up as Elvis deserves an award... Now that I think about it, Season 2 needs an Elvis Pony!

Anonymous said...

#11- 72oz steak free? Is that one of those deals where you have to eat the whole thing in one sitting or you have to pay for it?

Anonymous said...

Still no Southern Ireland Bronies but yeah for the Belfast brony!

Anonymous said...

Good to see even more Filly bronies! Someone needs to get a shot down at the Sports Complex! Rainbow Dash at the Linc maybe?

Iconic Pony said...

I doubt anyone will see this, but I'm the guy that made the first map. I just sorted through and tried my best to find locations, if I couln't pin it down, I just went with the city that it was taken in.

Cyberfox said...

@frith

...I can't tell if you thought I meant, "That billboard isn't a landmark!" or "What are you talking about? Of course it's a landmark!"

In case of confusion, I assure you I meant the latter.

Derpy Hooves said...

Even more awesome and gorgeous places. I'm jelly of where some of these bronies live.

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

@Scribejay
You know you're gonna, brony. Resistance is futile. =D

Sigil said...

@misaki
#40 Here
I was very surprise to know there are other Mexican bronies out there. I think I am the only one in Guadalajara though.

frith said...

@Cyberfox ref: #9 "Bridlemaids"

Ah, yours was a rhetorical statement, which explains why I couldn't find who it was you were replying to, and I totally missed the irony. 8^)

Anonymous said...

@Iconic Pony I see it.

Good job, Iconic. ^_^ Trot on. BTW, Grainbee, Kickbuck, Canterda is Granby, Quebec, Canada. I thoughgt a lot more people would be ponifying geographical names.

Where did that guy from number 49 get that awesome tee shirt?

#9, #12, #22 checking in!

#40, you sir know how to fiesta! I really like a lot of these, such awesome locales. Such as that crazy high shot of Capri in #13, the love sign of #37, and of course Bob's Big Screen Discount Warehouse #3.

Yuri said...

Don't label all the unlabled ones manually just post them as is. Let the community do the labelling, I bet we could get all them!

ProfesorRod said...

¿¡Fiesta, Pinkie!?

¡AY CARAMBA!

Someone in Italy should take a picture of Applejack bucking the tower of Pisa

sparkleshyguy85 said...

@ShivalWolf

I'd do one myself (I'm in Sydney) but I don't have the means to get it uploaded (nor a pony toy) anyway... :P

I'm still surprised there hasn't been any shots of London

Fall said...

Ireland! Finally! Unfortunately, I've never actually been to Belfast so the score is still Fall 3, World 231.

Björn Samuelsson said...

Seth, here's a crazy idea:

What if you add a donation-button for more events of ponies around the world? When the donation tally hits a threshold amount, we get a new event. Set the threshold high enough that you can go traveling for real after only a few extra events.

You really deserve something extra for all the work you put into this blog!

Yay! Someone posted picture from Budapest!

Hiro said...

#23 Here.
I think #18 is really cute. I love those kinds of drawings.
#34 and 35 are very appropriate to Twilight.
#44 Awesome shirt.
#47 Very appropriate for Pinkie Pie. Also, it's holy ground for cookie lovers.
#59 Sun Sphere? Don't you mean the Wig Sphere?

Kujiiro said...

#3 I was about to say, "Hell yeah, ponies in Dubai!" (unless it's not Dubai, then my bad) But then I got a closer look and I think it's a picture of a computer screen. I call shenanigans.

Niccole said...

Anyone have a link to that Twilight shirt?

PonyPonyPonyBrony said...

@Anonymous
In under an hour. With all of the side dishes. But it's as close to a landmark as I could think of in Amarillo.

Александр said...

@RusPony
Yes, that's right. Do you live in SPb?

Anonymous said...

Hmmm my Pic hasnt appeared Yet Q_Q

dustykat said...

Are you KIDDING ME!!! I Grew up around Port Huron Michigan but now live in California. Another Brony takes my favorite character, Rainbow Dash, and takes a picture next to the bridges I grew up near.

The world is a very small place indeed!

I couldn't have had this much awesome happen if I had asked for it.

Stargazer said...

Pretty sure there's some fakery going on with #3, the one "in front of" the Patronus Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. At first I thought maybe it was taken with a crappy camera but the grid pattern on the background doesn't show up on the pony and hand which are perfectly clear. Pretty sure it's just some one holding a pony in front of a picture of the Patronus Towers on a computer screen.

Kinda sad to fake a photo for a fun thing like this. I'd rather see a picture from where ever they are, even if it's the most boring place in the world, than a faked image of a pony someplace famous.

Horizon Bound said...

#36,37,38,39 here. This really was a lot of fun to do. I can't believe how world wide we bronies are. Slowly creeping towards world domination!
I have so much traveling in the next few months, so if this event does crop up again, I'll be ready!
Oh, and way to represent Fillydelphia! It's great seeing a few of us around.

KnoxEmerald said...

I thought maybe I should get a pony and post it at the sun sphere in Knoxville. I guess I got beat to it.

CGentilcore11 said...

I see Twilight and the Pony Box on the Warhol Bridge, and I also see PNC Park in the background! I'm glad to see that bronies are alive and well in Pittsburgh!

Wow. Alot of bridges just became 20% cooler.

Super2Pony said...

Fffffuuuuu I'm the first brony from Hong Kong

no pony toy :c I missed McDonald.

Mooly said...

@ShivalWolf Yeah i know! But I'm sorta in TAS, so it's up to you to make an aussie photo! Unless i can find a landmark somewhere down here....

Blue fox said...

Wait.. There other bronies in my city? I thought i was the only one.
The city is Lethbridge BTW

meowxzombie said...

Who's the brony that made the clay pony at Laurel Caverns?! I work there, too bad you weren't on my tour.
