My sister married a guy from Arkansas and has lived there for about 10 years now. She almost laughed herself silly the first time she was at a BBQ and actually heard her husband say "Here, hold my beer and watch this". She told me she was certain she was about to become a widow in a way insurance just doesn't pay for.
