Drunk, rioting Kentucky tips over West Virginia
LOL:
Moments after Kentucky clinched the national title, fans filled the streets throughout the commonwealth, setting fires and tipping over cars. But Kentuckians soon grew tired of that and eyed West Virginia sitting there on the eastern border. Soon thousands of fans gathered along the state line and lifted West Virginia into the air, and flipped it over with one, final great heave.

CHURCHES PROTEST POLE DANCING ON KY/TN STATE LINE
The Tenn-Tucky State Line Tavern is causing concern among church-goers at the southern end of the Commonwealth: 
They actually wear bikinis and go-go boots. The one dancer at Tenn-Tucky on Sunday was doing it just for fun because she can’t be paid until the business gets a Logan County entertainment license. It’s the application for that license that stirred up the community. “I’m not even really sure we can regulate it,” Logan County Judge-Executive Logan Chick said Friday. “Because all of her business is conducted in Tennessee.” 
300 people prayed in public over the pole dancing.
