In honor of the 140th Kentucky Derby Friday, Carson ran the TODAY anchors through a "horse name generator" from USA Today. Some truly sounded like legendary horses who have crossed the finish line at Churchill Downs. Savannah's? Not so much.

The results:

Willie: Thunder Glory
Al: Bourbon Sun
Carson: Razor Eagle
Natalie: Falcon Red
Matt: Rum Steel

And then came Savannah's: Old Julep

"Old?! No!" she protested.

From Churchill Downs, Al chimed in.

"I like Old Julep!" Al said.

"It really has a ring, doesn't it?" Savannah added.

Then Al broke into a Kentucky accent, and the whole thing devolved. Watch the video for all the action.
