Post Comment
We're still going to make the commercial. Who wants to help? Send in your ideas and in your talents to info@kentuckyforkentucky.com or post them to the facebook page.
Thank you all for your support, your donations, and more than anything your belief in the project. There is no doubt that you love Kentucky. We fell just short of reaching the $3.5 million dollar tipping point. But don't worry we're not giving up on this project, and will not rest easy 'til Kentucky makes it to the Super Bowl.
Through this project and your support of it, we learned that Kentucky has the strongest brand in the world, and is made up of a bunch of people, places and products that kick ass. It's been amazing and inspiring to learn about so many great people doing what they do to promote Kentucky.
We're going to be rolling out a website featuring all sorts of fun Kentucky content for you. It will be the greatest website of all time.
Our next shirt and poster will be George Clooney is a beautiful man. Who wants one?

Posted project update #3Kentucky is My Land
I take with me Kentucky embedded in my brain and heart,
In my flesh and bone and blood
Since I am of KentuckyAnd Kentucky is part of me.
-Jesse Stuart from his 1952 Poem Kentucky is My Land
These words by Kentucky son Jesse Stuart signify what Kentucky for Kentucky is all about. Read them and read them again. Find your Kentucky voice.
Thank you all for your support thus far. Let's finish strong. To date we've raised over $100,000. Bam! That will get Kentucky a 1 second spot in a Super Bowl Commercial. Bam Bam! It will be the most amazing second the world has ever experienced. Plenty of magic can happen in a second. Like the second that Daniel Boone looked up and saw the Land of Tomorrow when he crossed the Cumberland Gap. Like the second Colonel Harland Sanders dropped his chicken in a hot oiled cast iron pan in Corbin Kentucky. Like the second of conception between Nick and Nina Clooney that produced Gorgeous George.
We've had great press this week, both the western and the northern presses inked us up, and the LA Times is going to run a piece. Check out and share the articles: Courier Journal and the Cincinnati Enquirer.
