A poll about your knowldege of the greatest state in the U S of A: Kentucky!

In My Humble Opinion
61

You should add “Yosemite” to this list.

62

Hmm… consorting with a known Hoosier. That could get me drummed out of Big Blue Nation. :smiley:

Yeah, I’d be up for it.

Also, DoctorJ, Owensboro BBQ uses mutton. Western KY BBQ is pulled pork with hot sauce on white bread.

And Bourbon County was dry but Christian County was wet.

A-thens, Ka-row and Ver-sails.

63

I only knew two, and I was pretty shaky on those.

  1. A neutered mustang.

2 for 8.

I don’t follow sports, so questions 2 and 6 don’t mean much. I wouldn’t know the answers to any questions like that. But, seriously, Col. Sanders’ first name?

64

Inventor of Bourbon = Rev. Elijah Craig, preacher.

Yosemite = yos uh mite

65

Not looking at other answers…

  1. What age are the horses in the Kentucky Derby? 3 years old

  2. What are the three races in the Triple Crown, in correct order? the Derby, the Belmont Stakes, and the one that doesn’t have a song.

  3. What’s a gelding? an altered colt

  4. What is Colonel Sanders’s first name? Harlan or Harland

  5. How many “secret herbs and spices” does KFC use? 17

  6. How many NCAA men’s basketball championships has the University of Kentucky won? 8 (Just guessing…Thank you for specifying the men’s team.)

  7. Who is the majority whip of the US senate (also Kentucky’s senior senator)? We don’t talk about such things in polite company. More julep?

  8. Have you ever heard of Ale-8-1? No. Do you know which former Kentucky First Lady was a football commentator and a Miss America?

Hello from Tennessee!

66

Roger, I would bet that your family’s song brought down the house! I wish I could have seen that!

67

A number of people around the Lexington area seem to think the state ends at Louisville. It annoys the heck out of me too. (Murray State Class of '85)

68

Yeah, I’ve told people here I’m from Western Kentucky and they respond with “Bowling Green or Central City?” I just look at them and say “About 3 hours west of there.”

Go Murphy State! (My favorite chant at Murray State games: “Let’s Go Peay!”)

69

I read this sentence in an article about tonight’s victory over Tennessee:

“Tennessee tied it at 73 on two free throws by C.J. Watson with 4:55 left, but the Vols couldn’t get any closer.”

How much closer can you get than tied?

70

Horrible phrasing, but let’s not lose the forest for the trees here:

WE BEAT TENNESSEE. So all you idiots at LSU that were chanting “NIT, NIT” look pretty dumb now.

71

Ha Ha, we beat Tennessee!

Life is good.

Watch out Gators.
