2018 Kentucky Derby (My Ole Kentucky Home)

[@shukanzaki]

Good old traditions to sing Old Kentucky home at Kentucky Derby and to sing Back home again in Indianna at Indy 500.

It wasn’t as loud this year I was there and completely missed it :( I don’t think it was cause of all the mint juleps

[@visaman]

Who is that blonde at 1:25? You would think she would be holding a Mint Julip in her hand, but, nope it's a camera, and she is taking a selfie.

[@Sketchyowl]

If it was a julep it would’ve been hot

[@BCLife231]

Btw that's the state Anthem and it's supposed to be treated like the national anthem

[@BCLife231]

As each states anthem is

[@nemochicky4697]

Why do they do the state song instead of the Star Spangled Banner

[@kevinanderson7652]

They do both. It's just tradition for My Ole Kentucky Home to be sung right after the national anthem.

[@nemochicky4697]

@@kevinanderson7652 just saw the video where they sing the national anthem It was the 2018 Kentucky derby

[@conradcash5103]

@@kevinanderson7652 We also do both for Home Football games

[@Laura-nx5cl]

The National Anthm is typically performed right before the Woodford Reserve Turf Classic Stakes and then My Old Kentucky Home right before the derby :)

[@maestrobjwa90]

Yes and I believe that's the tradition at the Preakness and Belmont as well!
