Not Six Flags.

8. It’s Not the Shore it’s the Beach

If you say the shore you are most likely a Benny.

Yes we are all happy it got cancelled,not everyone who lives in the garden state is like that.

10. Left Turns Don’t Exist in New Jersey

We have jug handles because going in circles is more fun anyways.

Can’t explain my frustration stopped in the right lane when it’s a red light because a New Yorker is in front of me.  

12. The State Bird

…is the middle finger (not really) we aren’t afraid to use one or both especially when dealing with dumb drivers.

13. Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi
