What can you bring into the Kentucky Derby?

We are less than two weeks away from the 2021 Kentucky Derby, and it looks like Churchill Downs will host spectators after a year's hiatus.

20,000-30,000 people are expected to be allowed in, which makes up about 40-50% capacity.

So if you're attending, what are you allowed to bring in, and what must stay home?

Here's your guide.
