What Would You Name A Notre Dame-Themed Kentucky Derby Horse? Part 2

The 145th Kentucky Derby is this weekend, and we are looking to have the same kind of fun we had last year. What do you think of when the Kentucky Derby rolls around each year? Well, you probably think about big hats, mint juleps, jockeys, money, money, and of course... those incredible names for all of the horses.

If you don’t have all that cash, a fancy big hat, and a jockey on standby - you may feel isolated. First thing you should do, is make a mint julep following our friend Jessica Smetana’s lead (I think you’ll like this one best).

Here are a few of my own design from last year — and some new ones with that Notre Dame Fighting Irish flair:

• Get Off My Grass
• Elevator Gentleman
• First Rides Don’t Matter
• Fullbacks Forever
• Lou Holtz Is My Mother
• Burritos over Tacos
• All The Mums
• Muffet’s Mare
