kentucky derby,.....
 

so,...i'm off this afternoon to a kentucky derby party,.......i love a good horse race
anyone else watchin it?
who are your picks,...

and sweets, dont you dare say anything about this being random,......lots of people watch the derby

I believe the only thing exciting about it is people putting 1,000's and 1,000's of dollars on one horse, and only to see a race that lasts about 30 seconds, and see a different horse win every year by half a mane.

I just don't see the draw.

mmmm,...the draw?
lets see,.....
i love the horses,.......its amazing how fast they move,.....
i love the smell of the track,.....adrenaline, horse sweat, and money
i love to see all the hats the ladies are wearing,....
i've never had a bad time at the track, even if i lost alot of money,.....good friends,.....its fun,......and i always get pretty toasted (i've got two bottles of reisling in the cooler for today)

for me, i guess its more of a social event,......and mix that with my love of horses and its a win win

I like sea biscuit :D

I think you underestimate the amount of rednecks on here.

well actually uhhh......nvm, next time. But this wasn't really random. =\

8 Belles just got pwned. Poor horse, comes in second and then breaks her two front ankels :/

won 600,.......go big brown
drank too much
sat in the sun
fell the **** out and didnt even know it,.....
and i think my ankle is broken,.....

there's a story in here somehwere

but right now i think i'm goin to bed

That was so sad when they had to euthanize the horse.

I live about 10 minutes from Churchill Downs (where the derby is held), and I honestly hate the event. The amount of traffic increases by 100x throughout the metro area.
