The Commonwealth of Kentucky is anything but common, and there are quite a few things tourists need to know before they visit the Bluegrass State. And one is that the bluegrass is not blue, but the basketball fans are! Whether you are visiting Louisville, Lexington, Kentucky Lake, or going on the Bourbon Trail there are a lot of do's and some don'ts you need to know about when visiting Kentucky

Kentucky has the best home made meth in the country, well Missouri comes in at 2nd place. Missouri's they make driving up and down the interstate, at least in Kentucky you can open your windows and night and smell what house it's coming from. You can knock on the door and see your supply being made. Kentucky is great come visit us for the corruption that is only one state away from what goes on in Illinois. Oh, and the Christians there great, the best of the back stabbing kind. If you have money come and visit and leave, if you don't have money come and stay awhile like the rest of us. You'll fit right in with the low wages, shack living, beautiful trashed gully lover's. Unless, you are homeless, then you have to try to hide, we don't want to see you, there are laws against that sort of thing here.

I have a major DON'T for you considering I've lived here for 11 years now. Just DON'T visit, period. Drive through and maybe pop into a distiller for a bottle of bourbon, you're done. move on to a more interesting state like Tennessee or Virginia or Ohio, depending on which way you are travelling. I'm planning to leave as soon as possible myself. Everything you can find here, you could most likely find a better version of in a different state. I've done quite a bit of travelling in my life and am an over the road trucker. I moved here to be closer to my brother because it doesn't matter to me where home base is, but now he's considering moving on himself so I too will move home base.

Im a month late but, I have one little critique we are 100000% PURE SOUTHERN. Outside of Louisville youll definitely be treated with southern hospitality. Huge part of the population live in the back roads (my fellow Kentuckians know DAMN WELL what Im talkin about ) we are super religious and you definitely hear a southern twang with lots of southern words. Also you can get sweet tea ANYWHERE here and theres Cracker Barrels and Waffle Houses on every exit Another thing if you take out Louisville the rest of the state is much closer to Tennessee cultural wise.

I'm so happy you enjoyed your time here! :) A couple of things I would like to add to the list: Cumberland Falls is the only place in the Western hemisphere where you can see a moonbow, basically a rainbow at night. Be sure to check their website ahead of time, though, because there's only certain times of year that you can see it. Also, be sure to go to Keeneland to try some of the burgoo, a Kentucky creation. Think of it as a spicy beef stew. And it wouldn't hurt to have some of their delicious bread pudding with a buttery warm bourbon sauce. ;)

Kentucky was much wilder years ago. In 1970 I saw 2 teenagers playing in their yard. one behind a huge light and o, e behind a junk vehicle. They were shooting 12 gauge shotguns at each other. This was just outside of Louisville. A real eye opener for me. scared me to death. The boys just laughed and laughed. I was from a middle class german/Irish neighborhood in Chicago and was totally culture-shocked.

Everyone's different. I'm sure there are several thousand people in Kentucky that could care less about the derby or the alcohol. It's hard to sum up a state and involve everyone that lives there. I would really love to see him sum up Illinois Chicago and corn field. From Illinois moving to Kentucky ( London. Really excited to explore the cemeteries!

We have a saying about Louisville. It's just 30 minutes from Kentucky. When asked if they've ever been to Kentucky, I've heard people say, Yeah. I was in Louisville once. Just going to Louisville, DOES NOT mean that you've been to Kentucky. There's SO much more to Kentucky than just Louisville. Louisville IS NOT a true representative of Kentucky.

Interesting trivia: Colonel Harlan Sanders was not an actual military colonel; he was a Kentucky Colonel, which is a high honor in Kentucky. Kentucky Colonels are a benevolent society of sorts, and do a lot of charity work. They have to be nominated by the governor, usually because of leadership or prior work to improve the Commonwealth.

Proud Kentuckian here! If you come back to visit our beautiful state, come join us at Elk Creek Vineyards. We're just north or Frankfort. Not only does Kentucky make the best bourbon but we make great wine as well. Fun fact. the first commercial winery in America was in Kentucky.

Woodford Reserve is beautiful, isn't it? I especially loved the orange and white tabby kitty in the barrel barn, lol.
My in laws live in Lexington, and I'm hoping to get to visit Keeneland one day. We always seem to be there when it's closed, like Christmas.
