Selfie Sticks Banned at Kentucky Derby

Churchill Downs Racetrack is ramping up security in the lead-up to the Kentucky Derby by banning selfie sticks, drones, and re-entry to ticketed guests. Churchill Downs general manager Ryan Jordan said banning re-entry “is intended to improve the arrival experience of our guests by shortening the entry lines into the facility and to better safeguard our guests from purchasing counterfeit tickets outside of our gates.”
