Well why not have a holiday for a horse?
After all we do live in Kentucky.
Man o’ War, perhaps the greatest racehorse of all time, was born today in 1917. He raced 21 times. He won 20 times. Not too bad.
New Sweden?
Today in 1638, Swedish colonists established the first European settlement in Delaware, naming it New Sweden. If that name had stuck, would we be celebrating Waffle Day with more vigor? Hmmmm.

I’m puttin’ my money on the racehorse today.
Man o’ War Cocktail
1 ½ oz. Hancock’s Bourbon
1 oz. Orange Curacao
