Still laughing about this one.
C.B. Embry Jr., a Republican member of Kentucky's General Assembly, introduced a measure earlier this year to boost the state's spirits and honor "one of the bright spots" of Kentucky's economy. But with pressing issues such as the state budget, casino gambling and proposed tax hikes occupying the legislature, the effort to honor the Corvette has been tabled for now.
Other measures put on hold include a proposal to name Kentucky Fried Chicken as the official picnic food and to make cornhole -- a bean bag toss game -- the official state game.
Of course this leads immediately to thoughts of:
"Welcome to the cornhole state" on Kentucky plates.
"My brother's name is cornhole" on t-shirts of rival state residents
.. and many, many more colorful iterations. Cough medicine is a beautiful thing.
