The Kentucky Derby Museum earned the number three spot as the Best Attraction for Sports Fans in USA Today's 2024 Readers' Choice Awards after breaking records this past year for attendance, the repository said in a Wednesday press release.

Located at Churchill Downs, the Derby Museum finished behind Boise State's Blue Turf in Idaho, the top vote getter, and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs, who was the runner-up.

Welcoming an all-time high of 258,382 guests during the fiscal year 2024, which spanned from Oct. 1, 2023, to Sept. 30, 2024, this marked a 2.7% increase for the Derby Museum over the previous year's record-setting numbers.
