    If you really want to do it right, you need to get a seersucker suit. Also, you must have a mint julep at all times. Basically, go for the old southern lawyer in a movie look lol.

    Never been to the derby, but I have visited Churchill Downs. Cool place and I really enjoyed the museum there.
