However, that is unlikely as this is a town that time forgot.

I lived in Georgetown Kentucky for 7 years...35 miles south of Cincy. The first year I lived there everyone raved about Skyline Chili and said I had to try it....it was to die for.
After eating about a third of it I was begging for something to wash the taste away. Luckily for me there was one of those hole in the wall BBQ places near my house and the guy who owned it grew up in KC.
I never darkened the door of a Skyline Chili diner the remainder of the 6 additional years I lived there.
The other thing there I could never get a taste for....Ale Eight soda.
