It appears nothing could.ĭespite being home to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, sandwiches that incorporate French fries as a filling, and football fans who steal prosthetic legs, Pennsylvania still feels like it flies a bit under the radar sometimes. And to my cousins in Florida: I’m sorry I couldn’t help you. Is the loose-meat sandwich greater than the Juicy Lucy? Is Tonya Harding worse than Skip Bayless? Where does one locate Delaware on a map?Īnyway, we’ll let you get to it. What we’d prefer, though, is for it to start the same sort of debate Matt and I had when sorting out the rankings. Someone else will accuse us of having never been to a state, and say mean things about our hair. Someone will inevitably use the word “invalid” and say they stopped reading as soon as “X” happened. We expect that you will find our placement of Arkansas or New York or Montana infuriating, and accuse us of pandering and showing regional biases. More specifically, their contributions to America, so think inventions, food/drink, somewhat productive famous people, unique physical beauty, etc.īecause this is the internet, we expect disagreements. Seeing how we’ve already danced with state rankings involving food/drink and beer, we thought it was time to use the perfectly American cliche “go big or go home” and rank the states based on everything.
