You might be from Ohio (pronounced O-hi-uh), if:


You think all Pro football teams are supposed to wear orange!

You know all the 4 seasons: winter, still winter, almost winter and construction.

You live less than 30 miles from some college or university.

You know what a buckeye really is, and have a recipe for candied ones.

"Toward the lake" means "north" and "toward the river" means "south."

You know if other Ohioans are from southern or northern Ohio as soon as they open their mouths.

You can spell words like Cuyahoga, Olentangy, Bellefontaine, Tuscarawas, Wapakoneta and you know which letter is doubled in Cincinnati.

"Vacation!" means spending a day at Cedar Point in the summer and deer hunting in the fall.

You measure distance in minutes.

Your school classes were canceled because of cold.

Your school classes were canceled because of heat.

You've had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.

You know what should be knee-high by the Fourth of July.

You end your sentences with an unnecessary preposition. For example:
"Where's my coat at?"

You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked.

You think of the major four food groups as corn, pork, beer, and Jell-O salad with marshmallows.

You carry jumper cables in your car.

You know what 'pop' is.

You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit.

Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow. (Amen!)

You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightgown.

The local paper covers national and international headlines on one page but requires six pages for sports.

You know which leafs make good toilet paper

If you actually get these jokes -- then forward 'em to your OHIO friends!

I heard Ohio had a pro-football team like in 1988. But does Ohio have a Pro sport team? Baseball or Football?
Those orange guys on the feild, I thought they were just wearing safety orange. Every once in a while they get in the way of the colorful teams practice. This isn't the team is it?

I just realized, I leave Arizona and they have no Pro-teams, I get out of the military and move to Ohio, Arizona has a Winning Baseball team, and somekind of football thing. Ohio doesn't have anything.
"DId I do that?":sorry:

I be from Cincinnati. Moved here from Southern Georgia like 3 years ago. I like it here more. No killer bugs, good climate, and it's inland (I'm not a huge fan of the ocean).


I like this smiley.:pray: It looks like he's praying so hard that he is going to explode.

Hello Ohio!!!!!! :wave:

Whoa! Not a fan of the ocean?
*Fans face with magazine.*
Hold on, just trying to catch my breath here.
