Tho, I suppose towns back then just had a general "don't ride your horse recklessly in town" laws, regardless of your intoxication level.

Yeah, when I was searching I found an article from 1901 where a guy was arrested after being drunk and riding a horse dangerously. He was charged with disorderly conduct and something like reckless riding(I don't remember the exact wording).

"Well listen here Chief! I was just taking my mare out for a quick trot to meet my main squeeze at the nickelodeon!"

"Alright there boots! But you were stinking of the devil's elixir and riding around like a St. Louis Dandy! I'm gonna have to throw your in the tank, 23 Skidoo!"

"Well cat my dog and call me a Jay sonny!"

This is how I choose to imagine this exchange happened.
