Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader gets engaged at the Kentucky OaksShe said yes!
It's not hyperbole to say Cincinnati Bengals cheerleader Justine Templin will likely remember the 2022 Kentucky Oaks for the rest of her life.
Months after she stood on the sideline of SoFi Stadium cheering on Joe Burrow and company in the Super Bowl, Templin and her boyfriend, Jack Kerby, visited Louisville's Churchill Downs to take in the 148th running of the Oaks. Little did Templin know that Kerby had much bigger plans for this trip than to wager on fillies. He planned to ask her to marry him.
Read more on the proposal.
Kentucky Oaks undercard resultsThere's been plenty of action on the track today before the Kentucky Oaks kicks off.

With rain in the forecast, which Kentucky Oaks horses are the best mudders?There's a 90% chance of rain Friday, meaning the 148th running of the Kentucky Oaks may be decided by which filly performs best on a sloppy track.
Of the 14 fillies in the Oaks field, six have raced on an "off" track, which means the track was not considered fast at post time. Of those six, four have won their races on an off track:
- Echo Zulu
- Nest
- Kathleen O.
- Venti Valentine
Pockets of clouds and moments of sunshine poking out had crowds at the Kentucky Oaks either go for cover or fully embracing the unpredictable weather.
How many people attended the 2022 Kentucky Oaks?According to Darren Rogers, Churchill Downs' senior director of communications, 100,188 people attended the 148th running of the Kentucky Oaks.
