30 Things Ohioans Love
As told by a New Yorker who is currently dating one, is friends with countless others, and spent four years voluntarily living in this great (yet, at times, very odd) state during my glory days of college.
6. Referring to random parts of random towns and cities as “downtown”
12. Dating their high school sweetheart far into college… or, eventually, just marrying them.
15. Most restaurant chains (namely: Panera, Olive Garden, Chipotle, and Outback — I could go on)
17. Wearing athletic clothing while having no intention of working out
18. Chicken bacon ranch pizza and sandwiches
(Note: I realize that both pizza and ranch have already been listed but, believe me, these particular items needed another reference.)
19. Drive-thrus in general
22. Cornhole
(Note: Yes, that is Paul Ryan playing cornhole. You’re welcome.)
30. Being “the birthplace of aviation”
(Note: For a bit, there was a big dispute about which state was actually the birthplace of aviation. Although the first flight took off from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Ohioans claim to deserve the title because the home-grown Wright brothers invented the first aircraft in their bicycle shop in Dayton.)
