The Kentucky Derby Contest Of Awesome!

I hope you've enjoyed my Kentucky Derby series so far. At this halfway point, I thought it would be appropriate to introduce...


I have such magical memories surrounding The Kentucky Derby that I wanted to pass some of the awesome on to you. I wish I could fly all of you here to experience the excitement and traditions first hand, but since I can't, I still wanted you to be able to experience the thrill of the race. So, I'm offering up the following:



A 137th Kentucky Derby Festival Collectors Pin


An official 137th Kentucky Derby Program
and...



A $20.00 win bet on the Derby horse of your choosing 
 so you can cheer on your horse during the big race.

You're probably wondering how much a $20.00 win bet on the Kentucky Derby might pay. Well, the lowest payout of any Derby winner for a $20.00 bet was $28.00 and that happened twice back in the 1940s. The highest? Donerail paid $1829.00 on a $20.00 win bet in 1913, sent off at odds of 91.45-1, which is still the highest paying winner ever in the Kentucky Derby. Odds are this years winner will fall between the two. So what are you waiting for?

I usually open up all my giveaways to my international followers, but unfortunately, this one is for US only.  The only requirements are that you are 21 years of age or older and a follower of my blog. There are some ways you can get extra entries, like tweeting, a blog mention, or being a friend on Goodreads. You have one week. The contest closes on April 30th and I'll announce the winner on May 1st. Just fill out the form below to enter.

For the first time in my life you make me wish I was a US resident Lisa, ha ha ha ha. Good luck to all the lucky people who are eligible.

I enjoyed this Lisa. Great post. You obviously love it. A bit like our Melbourne Cup which is bigger than Ben Hur.
