The Difference Between Iowans and Minnesotans

You know you're an Iowan if...

• you regularly shop at HyVee.
• you take college sports more seriously than professional teams.
• you think Des Moines is better than Sioux City, and just a big deal in general.
• you pronounce the word "cults" like a football team from Indianapolis.
• you graduated high school with a class of 32.
• one word: RAGBRAI.
• you take pride in your corn.

You know you're a Minnesotan if...

• you are currently wondering what HyVee is.
• your state actually has professional teams.  Unfortunately, most of them can't be taken seriously.
• you learned in 4th grade that Des Moines is the capital of Iowa, and it's probably just a giant cornfield.
• you fulfill your stereotype by saying "ya sure, you betcha" in everyday conversations.
• you graduated kindergarten with a bigger class size than most graduating high school classes in Iowa.
• What the heck is RAGBRAI???
• you were raised to laugh at Iowa and its corn.

This is all to be taken in good humor, as I'm convinced that both Iowans and Minnesotans are fantastic people.  Wisconsinites, however?  That's another story.  ;)
