Residents of Bowling Green don’t have to go ‘through the looking glass’ to see a big white rabbit. His name is Harvey and he lives on Court Street. The ‘rabbit man’ peering out of an upstairs window at 216 East Court St. has a name, and he is not there to creep out pedestrians, although that happens more often than not. ‘I can’t even look at that thing, every time I walk by I just avert my eyes,’ said senior Kristi Kelley, who has to pass the house on her daily route to campus. ‘I feel like it’s following me, staring me down.’ Nancy Lenhart owns the home on East Court Street and loves the dapper rabbit that occupies an upstairs bedroom. She is an avid fan of the 1950 film ‘Harvey,’ which tells the story of a man who has an invisible friend resembling a six-foot-tall rabbit. Lenhart is so enthusiastic about the character that she purchased the big white rabbit for more than $2,000. Lenhart moved to Bowling Green from Defiance 11 years ago and has had Harvey displayed prominently in the window ever since she moved. From the sidewalk, Harvey can be seen dressed in a suit and bowtie, looking as if he is ready to arrive at a ball. Matt, Lenhart’s son, also lives at the home, and he is the lucky roommate of Harvey. He sleeps in the same room as the bizarre bunny every night. ‘I’m used to it, it really doesn’t bother me,’ Matt said. ‘I hear all the people walking by and I hear them making comments like, ‘it’s so scary,’ ‘it’s so cute,’ or ‘what is that thing?’ If you don’t look at it in the right light, it’s hard to tell what it is.’ Up close, it’s easy to tell that Harvey is a distinguished ‘rabbit man.’ He sports a gray suit coat, a black bowtie and a cummerbund. His magenta dress pants lead down to an odd accessory: roller skates. The house itself is packed with antiques such as a concert grand piano, autographed portraits of past U.S. Presidents, and an actual skull of a 12-year-old girl.’ ‘My mother is a little on the eccentric side,’ Matt said. Besides Harvey, Lenhart has a few other keepsakes commemorating her favorite film character. One is a framed sketch of Harvey drawn and autographed by the film’s star, James Stewart. Lenhart also had an artist draw a portrait of herself and her beloved bunny posing together in what resembles a family photo. ‘ Harvey gets plenty of attention throughout the year because the house is a thoroughfare for bar-goers. ‘That thing is legendary,’ said Adam Solomon, a senior who lives down the street from Harvey’s home. ‘I check it out every time I go by and say what’s up to the bunny-man.’ With an excellent bird’s-eye view of the city, Harvey the ‘rabbit man’ should be watching over Bowling Green for years to come.
