Derby Day at Dos Locos

The Kentucky Extravaganza Picture Hats! Everyone looks for the big Picture Hats on Derby Day and we didn't want to disappoint. Smile and say Mint Julep!!!


I warned you, and if yesterday's post about our looney tunes atmosphere didn't convince you, or the photos from Halloween for that matter, this should leave no doubt about Mucho Locos at Dos Locos.  The photo includes from left, Eddie (server), Me, one locoguy (yes that's a bird of paradise flower in his hat), Duglas (server), and the other locoguy. The hats were created, glued and ribboned by the doslocosguys in the early morning, honest to G*d.  Sorry about the image quality but it was shot using an i-something and leaves much to be desired. There were many more, this is just a sampling. But there it is.

Fortunately for me, the pre-race show was in full swing as my shift was ending, so I only had to endure about a half hour in my picture hat before the clock struck 4 and the hat disappeared as I turned into one very tired civilian enjoying my AS cocktail at the bar.

Of course, the hat went back on whenever someone wanted a picture of a few of us.  And yes, the big picture hats were worn until the derby's end. And no one batted a single eye at the spectacle.

That's Dos Locos!

And so it goes.
