Derby seats are far and away the most expensive ticket to attain in sports.. If you want a seat anywhere near the wire the price is going to be very steep indeed. A very good seat starts at 1000.00 and a premium seat is everybit of 2500.00 a piece and UP..

For the last 3 or 4 years I have stayed at Belterra in Indiana, which is about a 45 to 50 drive... Anyway I love the place for 3 days. The food at Jeffery Foos is outstanding, and the table games action is superior to any Atlantic City/Vegas hotel... If you like to play craps they have 100x odds starting at 5 fn bucks.. If you like BJ the table limits are 100 to 10k which is unheard of anywhere that I frequent..

They throw a nice VIP party for all the Derby going guests if you set it up in advance and provide transportation to and from CD.. Anyway even if you don't gamble Belterra IMO is an excellent spot to kill the weekend..

As for the Derby it FN awesome.. Unforunately the new dress for your girl with the new "wear it once" hat is a fortune..the seats are ridiculous and unless you have a good run at the tables it can be quite the expensive event of the year..

Where else can you see smokin hot 40 year old women tossing their lunch in a garbage can and then rinsing their mouth with Bud? PRICELESS
