Kentucky looks like fried chicken, that's how I always remember it

    Virginia has a similar shape tho, if not more chicken-like because it's larger on the meaty portion

    Virginia isn't curved in on the bottom right like the chicken.

    Virginia looks like a half baked cookie that is lopsided.

    I do tend to ignore the flat bottoms of both KY and VA, I'm thinking more of the "divot" before the meaty part of the leg occurs being more prominent in VA, whereas KY is a uniform-ish slope.

    Maybe a 1a and 1b situation for "States shaped like poultry" ranking lol

    I guess I'm just too familiar with the shape of Virginia? The hole where West Virginia broke off gives it away too.

    I feel like that's what enhances it? Lol I think of a chicken leg as like....skinny bone with a bulb on the end, and VA has more of that imo. KY ends up being more like a uniform line until it gets to the think part. 🍗 shape. I also just mean I'm reference to the shape itself, not as a memory tool. I'm from WV so I loooove the void we left in VA lol
