It was fun to stop by the Kentucky Fun Mall and roam around inside. Lots of Kentucky-themed items to purchase. Adam helped us with our purchases and info. Nice murals outside.

Cocaine Bear is now out of the back of the truck and lower to the ground, with a chair in front of him in case you want to sit for your selfie. Today he also had a Christmas tree standing next to him.

Stands in a truck bed inside the KY for KY Fun Mall, which was undergoing renovations when we arrived. Workers graciously moved piles of construction materials so we could get a better look. Nearby, stacks of "Cocaine Bear" t-shirts were on offer. Store parking is sparse and the building sits at an angle on a tight one-way street. We had to go around the block a few times waiting for a space to open up. Lots of great murals in the area.

The bear is a little high up for a good pic, but we put our son in the bed of the pickup truck with him and it worked. The store is full of fun Kentucky souvenirs and we also bought a cocaine bear t-shirt.
The girl manning the shop had zero info on the store or on Lexington in general...every question we asked was met with a confused stare or a referral to their blog...whatever.
