Rabbit Hash, Kentucky
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rabbit Hash, Kentucky is a small hamlet in Boone County, Kentucky noted primarily for its name, which may derive from the historic use of the local rabbit population as food. The hamlet's most notable building, the Rabbit Hash General Store, is regarded as the best known and best preserved country store in Kentucky. Rabbit Hash is unincorporated and therefore without fixed boundaries, which makes its exact population a matter of opinion, but the population is generally regarded as between four and 40 depending on how the boundaries are drawn. In 1998 a dog was elected mayor in an unofficial "election", an event covered in the documentary "Rabbit Hash (The Center of the Universe)", and in 2004 a dog was elected mayor once again.
Rabbit Hash is a motorcycle Mecca, with motorcycles outnumbering cars, when the weather is good. You can stop at the store, buy a snack, a drink, then sit back and watch the river flow.
