    You know neither of them wanted Tennessee.

    Kentucky? Bourbon.

    Texas? Barbeque.

    Florida? Beaches.

    What’s Tennessee got?

      They call themselves the volunteer state? I don’t think anyone had the heart or patience to explain that enslaving human beings isn’t a form of volunteerism.

      Shitty liquor store moonshine that’s no where near as good as real moonshine, and Dolly Parton.

      I guess Memphis style barbecue, if you’re into that. I’m not. Prefer my BBQ to be SC mustard base, a la Maurices (though, I won’t spend money there anymore). TN does have some damn fine fried chicken, though.

      Tennessee has some of the best whiskey produced in the US, they also have some banging mustard based BBQ, and chutney based BBQ.

      Oh, and Dolly Motherfucking Parton.
