I think us Virginians are going to be doing that this year.
Thought I’d bring this back to the top, since we’re playing the “You know you’re from/in _______ when …” 
I have a few more to add to the list …
The mosquitoes have landing lights
You have 10 favorite recipes for venison
You’ve taken your kids trick-or-treating in a blizzard
You think everyone from the city has an accent
You owe more money on your snowmobile than your car
The local paper covers national and international headlines on l/4 page, but requires 6 pages for sports
At least twice a year, the kitchen doubles as a meat processing plant
The most effective mosquito repellent is a shotgun
Your snowblower gets stuck on the roof
You think the start of deer hunting season is a national holiday
You head south to go to your cottage
You frequently clean grease off your barbecue so the bears won’t prowl on your deck
You know which leaves make good toilet paper
The major parish fundraiser isn’t bingo - its sausage making
The trunk of your car doubles as a deep freezer
You attended a formal event in your best clothes, your finest jewelry and your snowmobile boots
The municipality buys a zamboni before a bus
You know how to correctly use a “bubbler”
Almost all of these work for (upper) Michigan as well!!
I will forever hold the Wisconsin memory of somewhere between a rock and a rap station on the ride from Milwaukee to Appleton hearing some hardcore polka (yes, polka can get hardcore). I had to call my best friend so she’d believe me. Wisconsin has some weird things going on up there. 
katie, that should have been at the top of the list, we wisconsinites all know that its the most important 
“You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching.”
That’s scary, I didn’t even know that was possible. We get the occasional lake-effect snow. (Grand Rapids, almost too far in-land)
