About this Event
The time honored tradition is back! Now 20 years strong, Pete’s annual Kentucky Derby Party is a bourbon-soaked hootenanny not to be missed. Fit for Dames, Dandies, and Denizens of OTB alike, this throw down promises barbecue, baking, and betting replete with free-flowing Mint Juleps, be-hatted horseplay, and the screaming excitement of race-time!!
As featured in BKMAG, Greenpointers, Brooklyn Paper, & Bedford + Bowery, the Borough’s beloved tradition features:
-Brooklyn’s Best Pie Contest, where bakers become bigwigs…
- Pie Rules: Bake it, Bring it (by 5:15pm), Buy your entry for $10, and Be Brave as it’s judged in public by a panel of experts! First Place wins $150 CASH.
-Pin the Skirt on the Filly, a piebald, ribald pastime for the depraved…
-Pete’s Paddock, where horse-sense meets nonsense…
-Humo’s Barbecue, transmuting meat to miracles…
-The beloved Idiot Stakes, where fools and their money are soon valorized…
-…and of course, Parimutuel Pastimes, to salve the pain of this moribund life!
BRING YOUR GUMPTION AND GREENBACKS!!
