Kentucky Derby events at the Red Derby: Big Hat brunch, juleps, race on the big screen

The Kentucky Derby, the biggest horse race around, is this Saturday, and even if you can't tell whoever is supposed to win the race from Mr. Ed, the Red Derby has some fun stuff for you.

The Derb, at 3718 14th Street NW, has a pre-race Big Hat brunch (and their brunch is solid and cheap) plus they're showing the race on their big screen. There's also a $5 mint julep deal, the traditional drink of the race.

The race itself is at 6:24 pm, though there's lots of other races before. Sounds like a good time for some brunch n julep.
