Madonna, you may know, broke a collarbone and cracked three ribs last week in a fall from a horse.
You may not know that at the Mendocino Coast's Little River Inn, Mel McKinney is telling folks he sustained nearly identical injuries in a horse-riding accident that happened days before the Material Girl's.
And so? The significance to Mel, who helps his wife, Susan, and their partners run the Inn, is that as a convalescing equestrian he can hestly claim the title of pre-Madonna.
