The Trojan Horse

Remember the "Trojan Horse" story? This the bottom-line: Despite urgent warnings from the priest Laocoön and the prophetess Cassandra, the jubilant Trojans brought the massive horse inside their city walls. That night, while the Trojans were asleep celebrating their supposed victory, the Greek soldiers crept out of the horse, opened the city gates, and let in the rest of the Greek army, who had secretly sailed back. The Greeks then sacked and destroyed the city of Troy, winning the war. #NewYork
