Wes Welker handed out $100 bills after winning big at the Kentucky Derby - chairman - 05-05-2014 The next thing he knew, Welker was handing the people in the group Blandford was with $100 bills. “He said he just won the Kentucky Derby and proceeded to walk down the line until the police officer stopped him,” he said. “I think six of us ended up with $100 bills.” While handing out $100 bills may not be a usually smart thing to do, Welker signed a two-year $12 million deal with Denver in 2013. Which means that for him, making a few fans’ day, may be priceless. “Everyone was pretty much freaking out,” Blandford added. Jeff Novak, who also said he’s been a longtime celebrity watcher at the Derby, said Welker seemed ecstatic. “He just won probably hundreds of thousands of dollars so he just started handing money to people like it was no big thing,” he said.
