Every state has its claim to fame, whether it’s Hollywood in California, beautiful beaches in Florida or Bourbon Street in New Orleans. Every state has something it’s known for and in Maryland, it’s our blue crabs. We have things that defines us as Marylanders. Here are the 10 signs you’re from Maryland!
Putting old bay on JUST crabs is just not heard of if you come from Maryland. Old bay can go on french fries, popcorn, chips… the list goes on and on. Old bay does not taste gross on anything.
When it comes time for the national anthem during a sports game, the stadium erupts with the sound of everyone shouting “OH!”. The only downfall from this is going out of state and not knowing if you should say it or not, so you result to sadly whispering it to yourself when the time comes.
When traveling down south, people usually say, “Oh you’re from the north” and when traveling up north, people say, “Oh you’re from the south”. We can never win.
Honestly I had no idea they had a real name up until a few years ago.
Maryland is surrounded by two very historical cities (Washington D.C and Annapolis). Everyone from Maryland takes this for granted.
Lacrosse is everywhere in Maryland. If you’re from Maryland, chances are you have played at some point. I mean we have two nationally ranked lacrosse teams at the University of Maryland, so that says something, am I right?
Obviously most states or areas have specific lingo, but Marylanders have a whole different language. Going out of state ad using words like “siced” “bet” or calling your grandparents “jimmy and sally” you get some weird looks.
Maryland has four main food groups crabs, seafood, old bay and more seafood. If you are from Maryland you pretty much love seafood.
We have the hottest of hottest summers and the coldest of coldest winter. You can also experience all four seasons in four days. It could be snowing on Christmas and then sunny and 75 the next day.
This one is just inevitable. It’s either on your car, your laptop or your folder. You know it’s there.
