well, its Derby Day .... the race itself is due to start around 6:34 PM on NBC, the prerace show has been on for hours .... I'm not a fan of horse racing, have never attended one in person .... that said, we do enjoy watching the Derby and at times have followed through to watch the Belmont and/or Preakness .... as always the lady's hats are "colorful"

I'm recording it so I don't have to listen to all the pre race hype.
This way I can get to the few minutes of action.

You can tell that I have been out of it for a few weeks since I totally FORGOT about the KY Derby until it was all over with.
I don't follow most sports events or horse racing but I always paid attention to the KY, MD and NY races.
Congrats to the winner!

But you don't have to stop and feed hay to the horses during the race.
