How Well Do You Know the USA?
Probably more interesting to the American Loungers, but how many of the 50 states can you name (Without Google) in 10 minutes? Click here (http://www.ironicsans.com/state21.html). I missed 5. And it would be interesting to see how any international people compare.
# 1 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
Haha I'm from California (lived there up until last summer), and I missed 15! Wow it must be the morning getting to me or something. I'll take it a bit later when I'm more conscious.
# 2 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I know. I thought I'd have them all within the first couple of minutes, but when you run out, it's hard to think of any more. Besides, who cares about Iowa anyway?
# 3 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
i got 12 left it seems that i missed a couple pretty obvious ones.
# 4 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I got the all, with 2:18 remaining.

That was my last one too.

That was a great find. I couldn't finish up because of dinner, but I got 26 with seven minutes left.
# 6 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?

# 7 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
49! How could I forget New Jersey?!
Following NCAA sports with hundreds of schools across the country is apparently good for geography...
# 8 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I had 11 left and I'm from Canada. I'm really proud of myself. Here's the ones I forgot:
Arizona, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Utah, Vermont.
# 9 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
Thats pretty good habsrock, you'd probably do better than some folks in the USA.
# 10 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I just don't understand how I missed Kentucky, seeing as I got back from KFC 5 minutes prior to this test :p
# 11 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
Alright, second time around I got 5 remaining.
You forgot: Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Minnesota, Rhode Island
Ahh well.
# 12 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I was flying until the 5:00 mark.
You forgot:Arkansas, Idaho, Massachusetts,

# 13 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?

# 14 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?

# 15 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
40 / 50
pretty good i guess
i still had 2 minutes left though, but I gave up
# 16 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I got 40 too
Who would have thought that Massachusetts was that hard to spell. The ones I found tricky were from the Mid-West (i.e. Wisconsin, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Kasas, Indiana, Idaho; and New Hampshire too)

# 17 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
Only missed one - Arkansas.
Once I can get past the 8 Ms and the 8 Ns, I'm usually in good shape.

# 21 Re: How Well Do You Know the USA?
I got 27 states in that one. If it didn't glow and say "Look Here" though, it would have probably been half of that.
