This picture was taken at the Pegasus Parade Float Preview in Louisville, Kentucky. As the name suggests, this was preview of the floats the night before the actual parade (which I was unable to attend) during the days leading up to the Derby. This was one of the clowns that wandered around the Kentucky Exposition Center entertaining the kids (and, incidentally, me). In case you're curious, in this picture, his giant fly-swatter (a setup for some joke about the swat team) is being used as an oar. He also carried, among other things, a picture of some goats in his pocket which he explained were his kids. Jokes, both corny and classic. He reminded me of my father.
