  • You Know You’re In Kansas When

    You Know You’re In Kansas When .....


    You know the meaning of Rock Chalk Jayhawk.

    You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.

    What in the world is a vegetarian special? We don't even know what that is much less serve it at the local diner.

    The temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.

    You're ready to shoot the next person who asks about Toto or Dorothy

    The potatoes cook underground, and all you have to do to have lunch is to pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.

    The terms Sooners, Huskers and Missouri Tigers cause the hairs on the back of your neck to stand up straight and your blood pressure to rise.

    You are not surprised to find movie rentals, ammunition and bait all in the same store.

    You prefer the Little Apple over the Big Apple as a place to live.


    You understand the difference between 3.2 and 6 point, and more than once you've made a beer run to another state.

    You really do think Sunflowers are beautiful.

    You went to skating parties as a kid.

    You'll pay for your kids to go to college...unless they want to go to OU or NU.

    You wave to all the oncoming traffic.

    You know that cow pies aren’t made of beef.

    There’s a tornado warning and the whole town is outside looking for it.

    You can make instant sun tea.

    You discover that in July, it takes only two fingers to drive your car.

    You discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window.

    Down south means Oklahoma.

    It's noon in July, kids are on summer vacation, and not one person is out on the streets.

    You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

    You know everything goes better with Ranch.

    You know the real way to pronounce the name of Clintons state and the river... arKANSAS.

    You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m. before work.

    You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

    Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

    The only tourists you see are on the way to Colorado.

    You instantly know someone is from Johnson County when they call everything west of Topeka... Western Kansas.

    It's a bottle or a can of pop here. Soda is something you bake a cake with.

    You think the opening day of pheasant season is a national holiday.

    The popcorn growing in the field is already popped.
