We watched the muddy Kentucky Derby earlier this month.
Those races are fun to watch even if you don’t know much about the horses. My
favorite part is “Down the stretch they come!” After the race the winning jockey
was interviewed while he was still on his horse by a female journalist who was
also on a horse. (Not the same horse, of course.) It was so cool. In talking to some friends last week,
apparently this practice has been around for a while.
I think this horseback interview thing needs a bigger buildup. And a sponsor. I picture a break in the post-race action where an announcer says, “And now, our horseback interview of the winning jockey! This segment sponsored by Jockey.” Sounds like a winner to me!
Did I tell you I took a marketing course in college?
