Artists to sell Kentucky Derby winner’s poop (WHAT!?)

Are you interested in a $200 jar of poop from 1997 Kentucky Derby winner Silver Charm?

If so, the jars by Kentucky for Kentucky went on sale May 1.

The Lexington Herald-Leader reports artist Coleman Larkin is the mastermind behind the expensive crap.

Sales from the “Derby Turds” will go toward Old Friends Farm in Georgetown, a thoroughbred retirement facility Silver Charm calls home.

The newspaper says supply of the resin-coated feces is limited.

Larkin says the most difficult part of the creative project is asking “the type of people that own million-dollar thoroughbreds if I can please have some horse turds to put in jars.”
