Yes, there is a Greyhound Hall of Fame... (KS)

We’re referring to the dogs, not the bus company. A surprising Abilene treasure, seemingly as well funded as the Eisenhower Center, but free admission. Got to pet a couple of nice looking well dispositioned 12-year-old greyhounds, former racers. The museum heralds the raising of greyhounds as pets and racers since the earliest time, and the progression of greyhound racing in the US. Lots of history and bronze busts, both dogs and promoters. Encourages the adoption of retired athletes.
