Poll Reveals The USA’s Drunkest, Hottest and Silliest-Sounding States

ADVERTISEMENT

Remember the amusing polls, when Europeans were asked to name which countries they though were the drunkest, hottest and silliest-sounding, etc? Seeing how successful the project turned out to be, Business Insider and SurveyMonkey’s Audience decided to carry out a similar poll in the US. They interviewed 1603 respondents, asking them questions that everyone jokes about around a dinner table, but that haven’t been officially published yet.

As you may guess, the US turned out to be a highly convenient area for the poll, seeing how different each state is across the country. The questionnaire helped to finally establish which states are seen as having the funniest accent (congrats, Massachusetts), best food (long live New York!), or are simply the nicest ones (well done, Georgia!).

It also did, however, ask the respondents which state they would like to see kicked out of the US (sorry, Texas, they were just being mean), which they thought was the dumbest (Mississippi, they probably just hate the spelling of the name), or which had the worst sports fans (well, New York, you can’t be the best at everything). Do these results sound accurate to you? Let us know in the comments!

I may look like a cat, but deep down I'm a panda. Sometimes I'm lazy, sometimes I'm bored - I'm just like you, but a bit cooler.
