Thousands of people packed into Churchill Downs Saturday for the 142nd Kentucky Derby.
Many in attendance knew preparation is key to fully enjoy a day at the track.
To get an idea of what someone needs to bring, we asked people from Millionaires Row to the Paddock: What is that one item you cannot leave home without before heading to Churchill Downs for the Kentucky Derby?
"You're off if you're not wearing a hat," said Emily Grzeskowiak.
"The ticket," said Dereck Cooper.
"A new Derby shirt. It hasn't done me any good, except I get a collection of Derby shirts. It's just a superstition," said Bob Kakos.
"Myself," said Lou Fisher.
"You've got to bring your phone," said Carlee Robinson.
"Betting money," said Brian Zydowdicz.
"Something pink, like the pink jacket. I got to go colorful, got to look right," said Ahmad Rahman.
