Menotti John Aristone (February 19, 1942 – February 26, 2013)[1] was an American jockey who raced in the 1975 Kentucky Derby on his horse Bombay Duck.
He was leading by three lengths when someone in the infield threw a flying disc over his head.
That caused the horse to shy back and then someone else in the infield threw a can of beer at the horse, hitting him in the hipbone, causing Aristone to throw in the towel.
