(2 years ago)One of the coolest things about living in Louisville [aside from the Louisville Slugger ] is the Kentucky Derby, although everybody in this city just uses it as a reason to get obliterated for a month straight.
Hunter S. Thompson actually wrote an article about it many years ago called “The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent And Depraved” .
Its virtually impossible not to get sucked into the hullabaloo I just think something about the Kentucky Derby is so charming.
