<human>: This happened to me today. I'm an exercise rider for a stable near my home, which basically means I ride other people's horses all day for money. Well, today I was supposed to ride a horse around for a prospective buyer. The guy was adamant that I use his saddle, which looked like it had been pulled recently out of a crypt, all covered in spider webs and dust. So I tacked the horse up with the nasty saddle, brushed it off the best I could, then grabbed my whip and got on the horse. As I'm riding towards the arena (in front of a crowd of people riding/giving lessons, etc.), I feel a tickle on my arm. I look down and see a small spider. I have MAJOR arachnophobia so I instantly began freaking out. Suddenly I realized I was feeling more tickles, on my hands/arms/back. I looked down to see a stream of baby spiders flowing out from under a saddle flap onto my body. There was a freaking spider nest under the flap, and I had broken it open when I got on. I went into a panic, began smacking at the spiders with my crop, hitting the horse and myself in the process. The horse freaked out, took off, and I was thrown onto the ground in front of everyone, where I proceeded to roll around convulsing and smacking the whip all over the place. Everyone thought I was having a strange seizure apparently, but once they figured it out, they all began laughing hysterically. I lost the sale, and likely will no longer be riding that particular horse. And everyone at the barn finds it hilarious.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: I had a spider induced panic attack on a horse in front of a big crowd of people and am now the laughing stock of my barn.
