    Derby Day at Churchill Downs  — 1 month ago

    I would LOVE to attend the Derby in tne next three or four years, I love TB racing and know a lot about the history of the sport as well as history of bloodlines.

    I’ve been on the infield 7 times. It’s a blast! Hard to see the horses, but it’s still a great way to spend a day in the sun (less fun in the rain, however).

    I have a ticket this year! Finally, I can participate in the greatest celebration of Kentucky pride ever!

    Absolutely worth it!  — 4 months ago

    I went to the derby a little more than 10 years ago with a handful of friends. We paid for the cheap infield tickets, so, it was a little difficult to see the actual races, but we still had a blast.

    If you intend to sit in the infield, I suggest you get there early to stake out your spot!

    I’d love to go again one year, but with actual seats and do the whole southern lady hat thing.

    This looks like something FUN to do. I’m not a gambler at all but putting money on a horse and cheering it on, even if it loses, would be interesting.

    Everyone Should Go at Least Once  — 6 months ago

    Went the year Canonero II won (1971?) and was in the infield. It was a lot of fun, but we didn’t know who won for I don’t know how long (no cell phones or Crackberries back then). I want to go and get a good seat some time, but that isn’t easy to do.

    hookreid is loved by many.

    It’s been a dream of mine since I was 5 and saw the races on tv with my parents. I grew up around horses and find the whole thing intriguing. And I want to be able to wear a ridiculous hat and drink mint juleps

    Churchill Downs, at least  — 1 year ago

    Had the chance to go to Churchill Downs, a few weeks after the Derby. Great time, thanks to our hosts!.
    Possibly will reconsider this “thing” – word on the street is Derby Day is overrun with tourists (like me!)

    I went. Being in the infield was fun, but if you are a horse racing fan I would recommend you try to get a ticket, so you can see more of the race.
