This past weekend, racing fans got to attend what people call "The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports" -- The Kentucky Derby. Held in Louisvilly, KY, this one and one-quarter mile race brings out the best in thoroughbreds as well as the best in style. Hats are a longstanding tradition of the races and in some cases, a woman's biggest fashion statement. See all the incredible head gear in this KOL gallery.

a horsie died in that race... they had to euthanize it. what a cruel sport. we ought to do that to bad humans. let's see how fast those people could go, maybe we might have to euthanize one of them. would they like it? guess not. it's the golden rule, people, no matter if it's animals or human beings. i wish more would realize that.
