A Lexington farm has mapped out a giant corn maze to look like University of Kentucky men's basketball coach John Calipari.

The 10-acre field of corn is at Kelley Farms, which opens its maze and pumpkin patch to customers Sept. 23 through Oct. 29, according to the farm's press release. General admission is $9 for adults and children 3 and up. Children 2 and under are free, the farm's Web site says. The farm is on Old Richmond Road.

"We think a lot of Coach Calipari," said farm owner John Kelley in the written release. "We just want to let Coach Cal know how much he means to Kentucky and how much Kentucky appreciates having him lead our basketball team."

The farm has made other corn mazes, including one for the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games last year.
