Kentucky Derby Begins with Ceremonial First Crap
The 128th running of the Kentucky Derby will begin on Saturday with a ceremonial first crap. Past Derby winners will be brought back to take a dump on the finish line minutes before the starting gun is fired.
?What says horse racing more than the Kentucky Derby?? said event organizer Willard McIntyre. ?And what says horses more than steaming piles of fresh crap? We felt the two would go perfect together.?
Thirteen past Derby winners will be in attendance at the ceremony, from the 1983 Derby winner, Sunny?s Halo, to last year?s winner, Monarchos. The champion horses? respective jockeys will scoop the poo from the track and spread it in the infield.
McIntyre says the 13 participating horses have been on strict, synchronized diets for the past month. Every meal and every bowel movement has been scheduled right up until the ceremony. With only three days until the Derby, the horses bowel movements are within two minutes of one another, McIntyre said.
?We?ll feed them an extra-large oat bag the night before at about 7:30 p.m.,? he said. ?Then it?s a laxative two hours before race time.?
If all goes well and the horse crappings are synchronized, Kentucky Derby organizers hope the event will become a tradition. ?The sight of thirteen fresh piles of horse crap, steam rising majestically to the heavens, the stench wafting into the crowd ? it will be breathtaking,? said Derby chairperson Elizabeth Dugan.

It all feels like a big fuzzy towel, fresh out of the dryer in the morning.
