The Volunteer State didn’t earn its name for nothin’. This is where you’ll find the good ones, the solid folk, the patriotic few that stick by their guns (literally) and salute their flag with pride. We claim it to be the most patriotic state, and here’s why.
- There’s generational respect
Todd Ehlers / Flickr Our relatives did some great things, and they should be respected and loved for it.
- It’s not strange to find a flag in someone’s yard
Tony Alter / Flickr Because…why wouldn’t you?
- There’s pride in the past
Michael Kappel / Flickr Tennessee remembers where it came from, to build a better world from where it’s been. That’s something to be respected.
- We keep up historic homes
Brent Moore / Flickr Because our history matters - it helped build this great nation.
- Nashville’s killer fireworks display on the Fourth of July
Eric Henderson / Flickr Music City makes national news with its amazing fireworks show every year - we claim it’s the heart behind it that makes a difference.
- We support the Second Amendment
Loren Kerns / Flickr It’s #2 for a reason, ya know.
- We respect our veterans
US West Point / Flickr They have sacrificed so much, we can’t honor them enough.
- …And our currently serving military
National Guard / Flickr These men and women should be honored, and Tennessee works hard to make sure both they and their families are taken care of.
- It’s the Volunteer State
Brent Moore / Flickr Coined during the war of 1812, Tennessee continued its streak as a volunteer state with the most men sent to the Gulf for combat.
- Tennessee holds to traditional values
Brent Moore / Flickr America, God and family. It breeds deep patriotism, a solid pride to be respected.
