See some of Dave Mustaine's favourite things, including the miniature horse he rescued from a junkyard

TGIF, guys.

Spin magazine recruited Dave Mustaine to show them his 10 most prized possessions, and some of them are so weird it’s amazing. Like his miniature horse. Which he rescued from a junkyard? “We found Rocky living in a junkyard, abused and malnourished. He comes into the house to hang out. Sometimes he spits up his apples. When you’re a horse person, you get used to it.”

And maybe the best one: a certificate making him an honorary Kentucky Colonel that he received when he allegedly cured a Kentucky man’s throat cancer by grabbing his throat. “I met a fan in Kentucky who had throat cancer. He was only supposed to live a few weeks. For some reason, I reached out, grabbed his throat, and started praying for the dude. He lived long enough to give me this on our next tour.”

Too perfect. Check out the rest over at Spin.
