Fireworks over Lexington
Posted on August 11, 2008 by LuAnn Farrar
Last Saturday evening I saw fireworks. It was a lovely show. Can you tell me where the celebration was and what was being celebrated?
The University of Kentucky held its annual “Fan Day” for the upcoming football season at Commonwealth Stadium, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Coach Rich Brooks, the staff, and the players signed autographs, posters and schedule cards were given away, plus other activities. The evening concluded with a fireworks show. For video of the event: 2008 UK Football Fan Day.

My mother was a public school librarian. I earned a bachelor’s degree in music and a master’s degree in library and information science from the University of Kentucky. The Herald-Leader hired me as a news assistant 25 years ago; soon after, I moved to the news research department, where I’ve been ever since. We used to clip newspapers. Now, almost all of our research is online. We've come a long way.
