The New England Patriots are trying to experience the biggest sports weekend ever in person.
The Patriots left the Kentucky Derby early to get to Mayweather-Pacquiao
The Pats went to the Derby for the party, but had to leave before the race started to make sure they could experience the Biggest Sports Day ever.
We saw the Patriots were at the Kentucky Derby -- Julian Edelman talked about their #brosweekend, and Rob Gronkowski wore a suit so Rob Gronkowski we couldn’t even believe it. But at 6:50 p.m. ET Saturday evening, Edelman sent out this picture:

— Julian Edelman (@Edelman11) May 2, 2015 The Pats were on a plane, flying from Louisville to Vegas. The race finished at about 6:45 p.m. So either the Pats got from their seats at the racetrack to their seats on an airplane in five minutes ... or they bailed on the race before it started. They had to do what they had to do to get to Vegas in time -- there's probably no way they could've gone through Derby traffic and still made it.
Guess their Derby was more about the party than the race. Somebody tell them who won so they know whether they need to fly back to collect their winnings.
