List of Kentucky state symbols

List of Kentucky state symbols

The following is a list of symbols of the United States Commonwealth of Kentucky. These insignia are determined by acts of the Kentucky General Assembly and recorded in Title I, Chapter 2 of the Kentucky Revised Statutes. [cite web |url=http://www.lrc.ky.gov/KRS/002-00/CHAPTER.HTM |title=Kentucky Revised Statutes: Title I, Chapter 2 |publisher=Legislative Research Commission |date=2007-06-26 |accessdate=2007-07-05] The state's nickname – "The Bluegrass State" – is traditional, but has never been passed into law by the General Assembly. It does, however, appear on the state's license plates. Also, despite the popular nickname, the General Assembly has not designated bluegrass (or any other grass) as the official state grass.
