sallyeastman · I buy a set of four glasses each year. I also get some from Churchill Downs the years we go to the Derby. I have boxes of glasses stacked to the ceiling of my bedroom closet, and I don't know what I'll do if we move into a condo in a few years when my son goeas off to college. I guess I'll have to get a storage rental unit at the local facility. So how many do I have? Dozens and dozens. I've always said that I want every person who attends my funeral someday to walk out of the funeral home with a Derby glass. Why, you wonder? Because of all the many places I've travelled and events I've attended the Kentucky Derby is that one annual event that ALWAYS puts a big ol' smile on my face, even if I don't have the ticket for the Animal Kingdom of the day! I mean, come on, how could you be in a bad mood at the Kentucky Derby? How could you not have a complete blast? So if I kick the bucket before YOU do, come to my funeral and get a free Derby glass while they last! · 403 days ago ·

candice.c.curtis · I have a scattered collection of glasses from the 80's, 90's and 2000's, some I got at the Derby, some I received from friends & a mysterious paper deliveryman, and still others I found at Goodwills, antique shops & swap meets. It's about the chase - spying a dusty julep glass in a case full of jelly jars, for instance - and enjoying the artwork on them that is so unique to the eras they were made. Plus, it's got a horse on it! · 403 days ago ·

driveon · I have about a dozen - I try to get one every year - Woodbine ususally sells them at an outrageous price, then drops the price in half about a month or two after the Derby. · 403 days ago ·

kyderbykel · I love Derby Glasses! My collection dates back to 1964 (with the exception of 1970). I started collecting when I worked at Churchill Downs in the late 90's and never stopped. My favorite designs include: '64, '74,'77, and '85. But my favorite glass may be 1982. That year my parents sat on Millionaire's Row - their first and only time. A sticky Derby Glass was my souvenir from their special day. I carried that glass around until I dropped it. I was broken-hearted! I carry my 1982 replacement very carefully! · 402 days ago ·

buckpasser · Yes Andy I do have all Derby glasses from 1948. I have some of the rare variations of the 1956 glass. And am working on collecting the aluminum glass which 1940 vintage. Those are hard to find. I hate to say but I also have all the Preakness and Belmont glasses aas well. I have numerous ones from old tracks like Miles Park and Commodore Downs. My racing glass collection is one of my passions. · 401 days ago ·

buckpasser · Yes Andy. I have large cabinets with glass doors and shelves. I use the acrylic spice holders you can get from Amazon etc. to form three deep of rows of six glasses. The spice racks allow each glass to be seen in a slightly elevated position. I try and group my glasses, such Florida Derby, Hambletonian, Adios, Santa Anita Handicap etc · 400 days ago ·

Peter Fuller lived a full life

As the horse he owned ran dead last in the Kentucky Derby, Peter Fuller stood atop his chair at Churchill Downs in 1968, pumping his fists and urging Dancer’s Image along at the top of his lungs. Read More
