20 horses on the field? Seems a bit too much IMO! Could end badly for some!

Also rans Sock Puppet and Kameltoe are scratches, and the favorites Trump Won and MAGA 2024 are added.

The old “Run for the Roasts”.
NBC is going to have steaming coverage I see.
Don’t go in the stalls until they’ve been hosed out and disinfected....like at Target.

Nothing like the traditional Mint Julep and a Loser Burger.

The noise!
The colors!
The naked girls in the infield!
The dirty old men with their binoculars in the stands!
A family tradition!

They put all the porta potties at one place in the infield, so the guys surrounded them and wouldn’t let the girls through until they took off their tops.
I tried this in the stands and the peanut vendor hit me right in the mouth.

They make such a big deal out of The Kentucky Derby.
It doesn’t hold a candle to The Idaho Derby!
Twenty baked potatoes racing for the sour cream!
One of the jockeys is named Bacon Bits!

Is Known Agenda a front runner? Where do I find past performances ?

We ran a little string for a while in the 70’s when they were great tax shelters. 20 horses is an abomination, they should be ashamed of themselves.

I, my sister, her boyfriend and my infant nephew arrived in Louisville the evening of the Kentucky Derby 1973. It was a mad house bumper to bumper with no hope of finding a place to stay. We were clueless what was happening to us at the time.

Well, maybe I can talk about horse-racing vicariously through FR.
Have NO CLUE what is going on.
I cut off racing around the Belmont when jockeys were kneeling for St. George of Floyd and then the Derby where they wore “BLACK LIVES MATTER” down their white pants. Even while massive ARMED to the teeth threatening demonstration went on just outside their Derby-day doors, by the civilly named “Not F@#$!@$ Around Coalition”.
Then I found out Stronach (which includes MJC Pimlico and Laurel) paid homage to BLM through all the sites stating how terrible we are and we must fight for just-us.
Haven’t paid attention.
Stuck with my old, old horses and old DRFs before it went woke.

Biggest crowd at a sporting event since CCP virus.
Wasn't going to watch but NBC has done a pretty good job of covering this.
Nice to see people enjoying themselves.
