Royal Ascot 2011
Royal Ascot 2011...why not? The Queen and the rest of the Royals will be there. I've never been to a horse race and the Royal Ascot is UK's Belmont Stakes, Preakness and Kentucky Derby rolled into one. It's also 164 years older than the Kentucky Derby - so it's got that going for it. Here's a bit from the website about the dresscode:
A formal dress code applies in the Royal Enclosure. Men are required to wear a black or grey morning suit with a top hat, while off-the-shoulder, halter-neck, spaghetti straps, dresses with a strap of less than one inch and miniskirts are considered unsuitable for women.
OK well I won't be in the Royal Enclosure...but still have to wear suit/tie and "polished" shoes. Like who's the dude at the gate looking at my shoes determining if they've been adequetly polished...I want his job.
