Do the Dance!
Babbitt, son of Nakayama Festa and the most perverted graycoat lover out there. SS, Heart's Cry, Justa, Shion, C.B. et al. are nothing before him.
Stallions and geldings only though. Mares are nothing to him. He completely ignored Koganeno Sora, a gray mare, during a race, so fans started joking he'd rather prefer her dad Gold Ship instead. He wasn't not horny that day either; during the same race he got so excited with a gray gelding (the lead horse guiding the racers from the paddock to the gates) they had to pull him to the side for a bit.
He also happens to be a Gold City-tier handsome horse with the same beautiful flaxen mane.
(Babbitt was always a horny horse but the "gray stallion" preference is a relatively recent development, according to his handlers. Previously it was some other distinct set of preferences.)

Note : Bobaa probably comes from the word Shuboba (็จฎ็ก้ฆฌ) which means stallion
It just comes from boba/็ก้ฆฌ meaning "male horse". Shuboba ("breeding male horse") itself is derived from boba.
The o/bo/็ก part means "male" and is used pretty much similarly as osu/้ in compounds except ็ก is generally limited to four-legged livestock like cows and sheep and horses (that's why it has the ็ radical). So you get ็ก้ฆฌ (stallion), ็ก็ (bull) and ็ก็พ (ram) but something like ็ก็ฌ (instead of ้็ฌ) would look weird. A similar comparison can be drawn between ็ and ้.
The slightly tricky part with translating is that "stallion" (and bull and ram) excludes castrated males in English while the Japanese equivalents usually don't.

Wait, so this horse was gay for gray?
Yes.

So what is the "Hilarious in Hindsight" here?
Is there some new super-crossover fighting game announced?
Seeing how this is parodying the intro for Smash WiiU/3DS, the stuff that ended up into Smash later on is:
- Minecraft
- Splatoon
- Dragon Quest
- Persona (although Persona 4 only got music)
- Solid Snake coming back
... I won't count the random keyblade in the video as Kingdom Hearts representation XD

This was made sometime around 2015. The original link has been privated.
I had a feeling it had to be somewhere around 2014. Not that far off. It feels incredibly typical of that era (in a nostalgic way)
I like how Emiliano Martinez said his goodbye's expecting a transfer last year but nobody wanted him so was stuck at Villa. Guess he had the last laugh. Artist did him a bit dirty with his nose here though lol.
