50 People Tell Us Their State's Slogan | Culturally Speaking | Condé Nast Traveler - Розваги
"My dad's a lawyer" really is the most Connecticut sentence ever
I would replace lawyer with doctor, but yeah.
shibbywwe only in Fairfield county
My dads a pilot and i live in ct
@@colesullivan9659 I live in Fairfield County and we seam to have a million doctors.
Im pretty sure its "leaving so soon? Was it something we taxed?" 😂🤦
Arizona’s slogan is “at least it’s a dry heat”
This is exactly what I was thinking, I'm surprised he didn't say this.
Arizona's motto is "Ditat Deus"
Latin for "God Enriches"
more like “ i promise there’s good weather up north”
It's a dry heat.
"Deserts and cacti"
Many of these people don't seem to know what a slogan is. "305" or "Nike" or "ope" are not slogans or mottos-- they're just things
Most of these people seem like they were born and raised in LA or Portland 😂
But my dads a lawyer is so true because my dads a lawyer and his dad is a lawyer
@@hamotin1michael160 LOL! Well, that one IS a slogan
Love that the Colorado guy was wearing a New Mexico shirt.
Why?
@@MySweetAriane Why was he wearing it or why do I like that he was? As to the first, who can say? As to the second, it's just funny.
Idk why
Noticed that as well. I'm like bro you're supposed to be repping your state for this and you chose to wear an NM shirt. I guess it's just a thing because I know a lot of Coloradans wear our memorabilia while we wear theirs quite a bit as well. Oddly enough our states seem to love each other.
The Florida girl always always always answers so wrong :(
She watched the “welcome to Miami” music video and that is the entirety of her Florida experience
She said 305.. that is literally is not even this only area code in Miami and half the people have the 786 area code. MIAMI is only one place not the entire state
Breanna Woods sexiest city on the planet tho, 305 till I die
If hurts how obvious it is that she hasent been out of Miami Beach
How old is that girl anyway? She looks so young…
I like the New Mexico guy. He knows his stuff.
NM Pride!!!
@@anjoliecordova5998: Nm gang lol!
@Skytypical Yesssssss!
NM 4 LIFE!!!!!!!!!
New Mexico! The state that people think is apart of Mexico. :,)
Im not American and I enjoy watching these videos
Me too, it's fun to watch this states things although many people disagree with their own representative lol.
Thats probably why you enjoy it lol us Americans are too busy getting irritated that the person representing our state doesn't actually represent the state
I notice on 90 day fiancé a lot of foreigners believe that the United States is all like Hollywood or Vegas and when they finally get into the U.S. they’re like...uhhhh??
The most widely used phrase in Jersey is definitely "down the shore"
Thank uuuuu
“Dope” haha
yeah but the official slogan is, “Come see for yourself”
Tbh I’d say it would be something along the lines of “Attitudes are our accents”
Ill be there in 20 minutes

Nia Sarae Ty u r the best
Nia Sarae I don’t understand why they won’t just put them in order lmao, ty
Thx this helped
Ur a frickin legend
Imraan hyena thanks I just posted some vids btw
Here for the Maryland girl to improperly represent our state again lol
shelleybean4820 As much as I absolutely hate the Maryland girl, she is partially right (finally). It’s written in Latin on the Maryland seal.
She actually was correct this time
I haven’t even watched the video yet and I came down to comments to see if she messed it up again. I’m convinced she’s never set foot in Maryland or even spoken to a Marylander because every video she gives blatantly wrong answers
ALL THE TIME! Smh
Actually she was right that’s our state motto
New YOrk messed it up... it's "If you can make it here ,you can make it anywhere"
I'm surprised he didn't think of "I Love New York"!
He really messed that one up hahahah
or like "empire state of mind" like the jay z song lol
“The city that never sleeps” I think is the best
What about the motto : Exclesior! : (
Rare L for Texas. She should've said "Everything's bigger in Texas."
She's probably a California transplant. 😄
Oh hunny......Florida is literally coined "The Sunshine State." Miami isn't the only city in the state lmao
Actually New Mexico coined The Sunshine State and Florida stole it. That is why the slogan Land Of Enchantment was copyrighted. True story.
THANKYOU
Saw another comment saying she said “305” before I heard her say it....but her saying “It’s kind of a Florida thing” made me cringe SO HARD. I JUST AS EASILY could’ve said “954”. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
....AND I just watched Montana’s answer. Okay, THAT EXPLANATION ACTUALLY MADE SENSE! 😑😑😑😑
It’s ACTUALLY “In God we Trust”...”Sunshine State is our Nickname. I’m a true Floridian and I had to google the slogan. I’ve been chanting “305 ‘til I die” as if it’s the slogan for years 🤣🤣🤣
I love the Louisiana guy. He represents us well.
“Laissez les bons temps rouler.” ☺️
I like him too. He sells Louisiana really well and makes me really want to visit.
Louisiana is very cool for sure. *_"Laissez les bons temps rouler."_*
He is always a favorite of mine
Kate n Wilson same. only bc he makes louisiana sound so diff than what im used too, living out here. 💀💀 but to be fair i live in the most non french part of the state. no culture where i am so it’s a bit boring
@@anddsheshere__ but is the food as good as they say? 😂
@@anddsheshere__ Shreveport?
Isiah Robertson BR :)
State Slogan. Florida: "This specific area code"
Florida: “the more north you go, the more south you get”
Haha that's a nice one
Literally told this to one of my college professors once. (Native Floridian and went to school in PA.) VERY true statement and DEFINITELY would’ve been accepted!
True
Perfectly stated. Put it on a t-shirt!
I would take that over 305! It at least makes sense!
i might be in love with the colorado guy but thats just me...
Join the club
I find him to be pretty cool.
SAME
Omg yeeesss
love how LA said our motto in Cajun French. love that 4 us.
This Jersey guy never fails to surprise me. "Dope"
he's a disgrace to our state😂
You sound like my sister 😂
@Upside-down Gacha yeah he is
And he’s the best of the bunch....the green jacket guy and the old guy are even worse
hovermo74 Yeah. NJs motto should be “Don’t make a left Turn”
that florida girl really just said an area code...
Nooooo Connecticut is "Leaving so soon? Was it something we taxed" 😂😂😂😂
louisiana’s was the best, y’all can’t tell me i’m wrong
Oregon's offical motto is "She flies with her own wings" which is way more legit !
I'm surprised the Michigan lady didn't say Pure Michigan
Also, there’s only two seasons, winter and construction
Not that for Kentucky. 😐
He could have at least gone with what's on our flag... 🤦🏽♀️
Wow the texas lady was a big let down. didnt even sing the part
illinois girl has definitely never been outside of chicago.
My thought exactly.
🤦♀️🤷♀️
I'm pretty sure the real slogan of Illinois is the Land of Lincoln
Faith Ann EXACTLY! I live in Chicago and have literally never heard anyone say,”CHICAGO, MY KINDA TOWN!”. Plus, isn’t Chicago a city?
Btw what’s “Sinatra”
@@mad000 Frank Sinatra
As an Auburn fan, I’m offended he said “Roll Tide” is Alabama’s phrase, but quite frankly he’s right 😔
same🥵
Auburn, really?
My in-laws are "War Eagle" all the way. 🦅
The Alabama guy is one of my favorites on the channel. Next to THIS west Virginia guy
😂🤣🤣 THIS COMMENT. ROWWW TADD 🤣
Missouri is “Show me!” We are the show me state. It’s everywhere. 🤦🏼♀️
...I’m sorry did this man just call them the GREEN packers??? Just skip over the “bay” altogether??? Lmao 😂
I thought he said just Packers. I'll have to listen again
caught it that time. No Bay
Jason Phillips 4:40
what the heck is a green packer!? lol, I was born in Wisconsin and lived right over the Interstate bridge, in Michigan. I know my packers.
wiitch right like what the heck is this guy saying😂😂 maybe he just got nervous lol
When it comes to state mottos, there's New Hampshire's Live Free or Die (which is by far the best, and has even spawned a relocation movement) and there's the other 49 which most people could care less about. Also, did the Michigan woman seriously confuse Latin with Old English?!?
Ok but can I just say that the Tennessee representative is literally the definition of basic to the point that she denies being basic
I don't have any real explanation but I just despise her.
I think she must think that she’s funny and cute, but it never works for me. 🤷♀️
I still can't decide which person has more hometown bias: Missouri woman or Illinois woman?
Seriously
New York
@@elocinaqui24 I doubt NY guy is really biased. I think people in the city might just be genuinely unknowledgeable about upstate if they've never been.
The Missouri lady, ugh. P
.......neither, it's Tennessee woman. Her answers are always Nashville related. I think she has mentioned East Tennessee (Knoxville, Chattanooga) once and has never mentioned West Tennessee (Memphis).
“There’s more than corn!”
There’s also soybeans!
Michigan girl, Latin isn't Olde English.
It's actually in English: "If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you"
In Latin its: "Si Quæris Peninsulam Amœnam Circumspice".
If you'd go with tourism slogans its "Pure Michigan"
I was in my way to write the translation myself! And after all of the commercials, how could anyone forget Pure MI?
WILD AND WONDERFUL for sureee
Why is Virginia for lover's?
Virginia is the first state to legalize biracial marriage.
We kinda hate everyone else 😂
@@williambush406 ??
jersey guy is wrong! our phrase is ‘down the shore’
I mean it’s technically “Come see for yourself”, but I feel you haha.. better than “dope”
West Virginia! Wild and Wonderful!
"Delaware, you can see it all in two hours."
Hmm.. I wonder why I never visited Delaware before. LOL. Don't plan on going.
Cool Breeze do they have anything fun there?
Mahalo nui loa to the strong u’i wāhine (beautiful woman) for representing Hawai’i nei. Once again mahalo kaikaina (sistah)🤙🏾💯
South Carolina’s official is “While I breathe, I hope”. It’s literally on the license plates.
It’s actually smiling faces beautiful places.
Actually Anna was right except she didnt specify that what she said was South Carolina’s motto
@awkweerd I hate you but it's true so I dont
@@justinchiles9393 its also nothing could be finer than in south carolina
The delaware girl always kills me she seems like she hates It there🤣🤣🤣
Lmao delaware ain't too bad💀, just boring
That's how all Delawareans are 😂 and she isn't wrong you can drive through the whole state in less than 2 hrs
I would say for CT "Leaving so soon? Was it something we taxed?" The privilege is real in Connecticut but not everyone here was raised like that. 🤣🤷🏽♀️
Would be cool to see a video on how each state views their Native American groups and how much they know about them
That would be cool. We know so little about those who were here first. It's so sad
I don’t think anyone knows about Native American groups because it’s not taught in schools, and it’s so sad since this is their land😕
Michigan lady forgot: PuRe MiChIgAn
Or “hold my beer”
She also butchered the State Motto in English and called the Latin version "Olde English language"
"If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you."
i don’t think anybody here could tell the difference between a motto, nickname, and slogan.
305?? Has she heard of “The Sunshine State”
Ulysses Luciano ikr right
Ugh. Only people in Miami say that.
Or "In God We Trust." It's literally on our license plates. Also we have more area codes than 305.
that’s a nickname, not a slogan
@@elocinaqui24 "In God We Trust" is the slogan
Can we just appreciate the Rhode Island guy.
yes please hehehe
I do.
The Hawaii girl isn't technically wrong but the REAL state motto/slogan was taught to us in Elementary school, It's "Ua Mau ke Ea o ka 'Aina i ka Pono" which translates to "the life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness" I just remember having to repeat this motto in school and even in High school when I took Agriculture as a class.
Maine is the "Way Life Should Be." He should have mentioned that one!
"There's more than corn in Indiana" is not the state slogan, it is a song to the Indiana Beach amusement park commercial!
Crossroads of America is the slogan.
I live in Indiana and I can say this is true, she also said strack and vantile is not the most known store😂
There also isn’t much more than corn.
I kinda like hers better.
Yes.....crossroads of America
the florida representatives never fail to disappoint me
I’m convinced she doesn’t live here because every Floridian knows the more north you go the more south it gets
It makes sense though when you think about Florida in general, I think she represents them really well lol. She’s a Florida Woman after all.
Did the Wisconsin guy just say “Green Packers?”
Wes Wiltshire 🤦♂️ yeah he’s fired. And it’s forward! Pretty simple to remember
He said Go Pack Go. Tbf that is pretty common but “Forward” is our motto, it’s in our our state anthem.
Should 've been America's Dairyland state
Lawson HELLU nah that’s the nickname, along with the badger state. But yeah, even that would’ve been better than “go pack go”
Did the WI guy just call the Green Bay Packers the “Green Packers”??? Y’allllllllllllll get rid of him
Yes...yes he did.
Wow. Disgrace to my birth state
I read this as soon as that part came on
As a Vikings fan...I enjoyed that 😂😂
He's a young guy so forgive him lol. Should have said On Wisconsin!
Along with "Coloradical," we use "BeUtahful" cuz it's friggin beautiful here in Utah.
Very true.. I say BeUtahful all the time. 👍
I would also add "gosh dangit," "oh my heck/oh my word," "I have a casserole for that," and "funeral potatoes" as possible runner-ups haha
I figured Utah would be "I have 5 wives!"
"Eureka! The Golden State!" Also, I would have gone with "I wish they all could be California girls." Cuz we're awesome (and fine and fresh and fierce and we've got it on loc).
I’m pretty sure the girl for Missouri has never once left St. Louis...
For my state I was thinking some more along the lines of “oh yeah, Iowa exists”
The Nevada on is spot on 🤣🤣
Hey I live in Arizona...I think our slogan is. It's hot but....and I quote " It's a DRY heat!!!"
LIVE FREE OR DIE BABY
Texas- "Friendship"
The motto was most likely chosen because the name of Texas or Tejas was the Spanish pronunciation of the local Indian tribe's word teyshas or thecas meaning friends or allies.
Was fully expecting the Wisconsinite to say something about the packers. Glad they did. Accurate.
Dear whoever chose Washington's representative, you're fired.
I am just so pleased with my louisiana love 💗 hes usually on point
Coming of age in Massachusetts during the '80s I remember "Make it in Massachusetts".
My guy did not disappoint. RED OR GREEN💚❤️
The Utah one😂😂😂
I love how the Cali dude reads my mind ever time
Keep West Virginia dude. He rarely misses
I waited 4 minutes for New Jersey to say “dope”
"you can see it all in 2 hours" 😆
The guy with Alabama completely fumbled the ball. Not all of us are Tuscaloosa fans. The Heart of Dixie for me.
Colorado guy wearing a New Mexico shirt. Nice😎
The Iowa girl did not get the memo that we use the Field of Dreams line
“Is this heaven? No it’s Iowa”
Idk I think they're both valid
Nebraska's official slogan that is on the sign at the border is "The Good Life". The newer tourism slogan is "It's not for Everybody". That is true & I think it could also be "The Tax Me State".
Yes I love the tourism saying 😂😂
The sign on the border also states that Nebraska is the birthplace of Arbor Day, which, while true, certainly doesn’t exactly mesh with the completely barren landscape!
Arbor day is Nebraska City. The SE part of the state is different scenery than the sandhills out west
I think I'm in love with the North Carolina guy lol
For Rhode Island that’s a good one but I was also thinking of “401” (our state’s area code) or “the ocean state” (our state’s nickname)
Sorry but the SD one is “great faces, great places” but “ope” works too 😂
Bruh the PA lady is amazing😂
we need a new florida girl pls
Growing up in Pennsylvania, SCOOTCH OVER!!
The Delaware one is so accurate. It's literally just farmland and the beach. And Wilmington.
Kentucky is “y’all come back now.”
- a Canadian (Ontario eh) who loves y’all.
Mostly though I just keep watching these for Ms North Dakota.
The Indiana girl final my got something right! 😀
The other motto for Iowa is "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes".
Tennessee: “guitar noises”
Anyone else just watching till there state comes up
Illinois... land of lincoln? It’s not just Chicago 🤦🏻♀️
The Indiana girl quoted a Theme park that’s closed 😅
The Colorado guy is wearing a New Mexico shirt lol.
It always gets me
While I agree with the KS lady I wish she had at least mentioned Ad Astra Per Aspera (to the stars through difficulty).
the utah guy was accurate. we do have a lot of mountains.. lol i literally live on a mountain
Yess i love my state people
Deep in the Heart of Texas is a song, not a slogan. 2 slogans came to mind for me- "Everything is Bigger in Texas" which is pretty literal (even though Alaska is bigger then us lol) and "Don't Mess with Texas" which actually means to not liter. It's why you see it all over Texas roads and highways because the state govt doesn't want you to liter and it's actually a state law I believe (someone can correct me if I am wrong).
Illinois Girl: CHICAGO! MY KINDA TOWN!
Me: I live in Chicago and I have literally never heard anyone say that in my entire life
"The stars at night are big and bright..."
Me: *Risky Business slides my way into the room*
👏👏👏👏 *DEEP IN THE HEEEEEART OF TEXAS* !!!!!
Illinois: "Where your governor makes your license plates"
