Hilarious Tweets About Every U.S. State
Part of what makes traveling through the U.S. so fun is that each state has its own distinct personality. No two places are the same, and everywhere you go you'll find a special brand of hometown pride.
To share what makes each U.S. state so unique and weird, we've turned to Twitter to see what locals have to say.
Of course, no tweet could ever encapsulate a state’s many nuances. But these do a good job capturing some of the most beloved (and hilarious!) quirks of the country's diverse states.
