13 Signs You Grew Up In Orlando

You must go to Disney World all the time, right?

1. You got to skip class to watch the shuttle launch from the Kennedy Space Center

Nothing beats having class outdoors to watch history in the making

2. You were able to frequent Disney World whenever you wanted as a child

Field trips to Epcot and Animal Kingdom were "educational" experiences and you had a least one first date at a Disney park

3. SeaWorld was your local "Aquarium"

To you every killer whale was named "Shamu"

4. You've probably never watched a REAL Hockey game

"Wait, you're allowed to punch other players in this sport?"

5. Living and Boating on a Lake with alligators is not a big deal to you

Northerners think it's scary, but it's the norm for us Floridians

6. Paramore is a band, but Parramore is a place you don't want to be past 6pm

7. May to September were the worst times to frequent all Malls, Attractions, and Beaches

I-Drive became the vacation spot of the worst drivers in America

8. Beautiful beaches were only about a hour away from you

Senior skip day was always spent at the beach

9. The best college football game of the year was always "UF vs. FSU"

You were either a Gator or a Nole, there was no room for the indecisive

10. The best kind of burgers were crafted by the Colombians

It's not just a burger... it's a gift from the gods

11. No matter how well or horrible they are playing, you'll still love the Magic more than the Heat

... and we can all agree we dislike Dwight Howard too

12. You lived in the home of the Arnold Palmer beverage, Invitational, Country Club, Hospital, and Arnold himself (during his winter)

If you aren't drinking an Arnie with your Publix sub... you might not be from Central FL

13. No matter where you live now, you will always call O-Town your hometown
