What's Your State/Province/Area Famous For?

[McKenna]

I live in Idaho. We're famous for potatoes.

And the fact that we have the largest wilderness area in the contiguous 48. (Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness)

Mountains and potatoes.

Oh, and Ruby Ridge.

What about you?

Texas. And I am not gonna post all the stuff we are famous for. But there is quite a bit.

The question is, are you actually proud of any of the stuff Texans are famous for?

*tongue in cheek*

 

[Xander]

Lakes. We got more coast line, than any other state in America.

And there is only one state that exceeds us in Golf courses. And that's Florida.

Michigan is the state.

 

[McKenna]

Hockey.

Minnesota? Really?

When I think of Minnesota I think of the dialect. Minnesoooooota.

I never would have equated Michigan with golf courses. How interesting.

I live in a small college town. I got 3 courses in town. 10 more if you're willing to drive anywhere between 10-20 minutes.

This state is littered with golf courses. And if you can't find one that is challenging to you here. You're either Tiger Woods, or suffering from a severe case of Grandeur.

What kind of buggies are we talking here? Horse-drawn?

 

[McKenna]

Homeless hippies. With dogs.

Sounds lovely.

There is certainly plenty to be proud of. And some things not to be as well.

But Michigan gets snow, right? So... that's golfing for only, what, 6-7 months of the year?

When I think of Michigan I think of cold and forests and Detroit. No wonder my perception is skewed.

True of any state. Though I think Texas outweighs Idaho in terms of rednecks.

Barely.
