Pennsylvania has a huge population of Amish people, which obviously contributed to the popularity of extreme sports in the state. Pictured here is an Amish girl getting her rollerblading on. She’s probably on her way to jumping out of an airplane with her siblings.
But in all seriousness, maybe she is starting off her Rumspringa. You know, the rite of passage in which a young Amish person leaves the community to abandon their way of life before deciding whether or not they want to return. It checks out in this photo. She even started to take off her Amish attire.
Oklahoma
Oklahoma's high college-dropout rate may not be surprising, considering the state's love of alcohol. But at least they recycle it in the most resourceful way possible. Here we present you with - the keg bike. Plus, if you’re going to live in a state with little to do, you might as well make your own fun!
Rumor has it that this is actually Oklahoma native Bill Hader dressed up as a homeless guy. He's filming an upcoming comedy titled, "I Beg for the Keg." The real question you need to answer yourself though is, are we actually telling the truth? The only way to answer this question is to look it up online. Either that or just move on to the next state.
Oregon
This West Coast state has developed a reputation for being a bit of a hipster mecca, most notably in the city of Portland. But in all seriousness though, Oregon may possibly be home to some of the biggest weirdos around, and apparently the most hipster of the hipsters.
Check out this guy who pretty much sums up perfectly what it means to be from Portland. He's dressed in hemp from head to toe. That beanie is just too funky for its own good, and he's writing a short story on the bus, on a typewriter. Seriously, who on earth uses a typewriter these days?! The answer is hippies from Portland.
Rhode Island
Rhode Island is a place where your seafood might just fight you back. Just then when we thought there was nothing more frightening in this East Coast state than their accents. The lobster hear are really fierce, as you can see in this photo. As if their claws weren't dangerous enough.
These lobsters are skilled in the art of sword-fighting. Of cause, they are not strong enough to carry full-sized swords. So kitchen knives are going to have to do in this situation. We also heard a rumor that these specific Rhode Islanders place betters on the lobsters to see who wins the joust. True story.
South Carolina
In this epic photo taken in St. George - the state of South Carolina is perfectly displayed. On the 12th of April, 2014, during the lively World Grits Festival, a young girl joyfully indulges in an unusual contest - rolling in a vat of grits.
The tradition involves participants immersing themselves in the delicious mixture, with the ultimate goal of getting the most grits to stick to their bodies. Grits, a beloved staple of Southern cuisine, are a thick, maize-based porridge crafted from dried corn hominy. This event might not be for everything, but it's definitely for the people of South Carolina, that's for sure.
