Daughter: Kennedy Once Decapitated Dead Whale

The Daily Beast reports:

Around 1994, Kennedy caught wind that a dead whale had washed up on a beach in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, and rushed out to the scene with a chainsaw and 6-year-old Kick in tow. He cut the whale’s head off, secured it to the roof of his minivan with bungee cords, and made the five-hour drive back to the family’s home in New York.

“Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car, and it was the rankest thing on the planet,” Kick Kennedy recalled. “We all had plastic bags over our heads with mouth holes cut out, and people on the highway were giving us the finger, but that was just normal day-to-day stuff for us.”
