This weekend’s Snapchat Story was the Kentucky Derby. The 142nd Kentucky Derby took place on May 7 2016.

I watched the Kentucky Derby with family members, many of whom are from KY and introduced me to Kentucky Hot Browns and Mint Juleps. Of course, the Kentucky Derby Snapchat Story showed the same thing that the TV did, and the favored horse, Nyquist, took 1st place.

If you missed the Snapchat story, I have plenty of screenshots below for you.

There’s Kate Upton! She knew I was watching, which is why she is so happy. And look, she even has the big hat.

Ah, the mint jujep recipe. They begin serving these at 8AM at the Kentucky Derby. My good friends tell me that you can’t drink all day if you don’t start in the AM.

It’s like pop up video, Snapchat style. Fun facts on whiskey.

Haha! That time you thought that running on top of a porta potty was a good idea. Will he remember this tomorrow?

They lost all of their money but don’t look very upset. I wonder how much they had! hehe

Interesting hat

The Snapchat Kentucky Derby Selfie Filter

I should probably mention the filter Snapchat released as well. This week snappers were able to wear a Kentucky Derby hat of their own using a self filter. Here it is in action:
