What is kentucky derby memes?

Kentucky Derby memes often revolve around the traditions, fashion, and sometimes the perceived absurdity of the event. Common themes include:

  • Hats: The elaborate and often outrageous hats worn by attendees are a frequent target for humor. Memes might exaggerate the size, embellishments, or general impracticality of these hats. See "Hats%20at%20Kentucky%20Derby".

  • Mint Juleps: As the official drink of the Derby, the mint julep is another common subject. Memes might poke fun at the drink's sweetness, the large quantities consumed, or the assumed sophistication of drinking one. See "Mint%20Juleps%20Kentucky%20Derby".

  • Horse Racing: General horse racing tropes also appear, such as jokes about betting, the names of the horses, and the excitement (or lack thereof) of watching the race itself. See "Horse%20Racing%20Memes".

  • Southern Culture: The Kentucky Derby is steeped in Southern culture, and some memes play on stereotypes or perceptions of this culture. See "Kentucky%20Derby%20and%20Southern%20Culture".

  • Fancy Attire: The over-the-top outfits, including the often-pastel suits and dresses, are ripe for comedic commentary. See "Kentucky%20Derby%20Attire%20Memes".

The memes tend to be lighthearted and playful, often referencing pop culture or current events within the context of the Kentucky Derby.
