I agree with the idea of $5 or $10 per person and a blind draw to get people involved with a rooting interest. Another sugggestion is to either give a set amount of Monopoly money or actually let folks bid on the horses and become their 'owner' for the day. The website www.kentuckyderby.com has excellent traditional cocktails and food suggestions for any Derby party. But also, the key to any good Derby party is strong mint juleps!!
