There are always a few things you’re unwilling to admit…whether it’s a guilty pleasure or something you did behind your parents’ backs, it’s just a little off the mark. We’ve found 10 solid admissions you’ll NEVER hear from a Tennessean’s mouth – if they’re in their right mind, that is.
- We really aren’t all that partial to hot chicken
jeffreyw / Flickr Fried chicken all the way, folks.
- Our summer humidity is borderline satanic
Patrick Emerson / Flickr Really. It’s like taking a hot shower. For three months.
- Most of us aren’t even from here
Chuck Coker / Flickr Yeeeah…awkward. Lots of transplants, for sure.
- Gatlinburg is slightly overrated
Matthew Paulson / Flickr Mainly because EVERYONE goes. Join the world on their honeymoon, folks.
- That Nashville actually is pretty cool
Brent Moore / Flickr It’s Music City, after all.
- That Alabama actually does have a better football team…
David Smith / FLickr We hate it. But the numbers don’t lie. But we hate it.
- That we really can’t drive in weather…it’s hard!
Dennis Collette / Flickr Mainly because our harsh weather in the winter comes few and far between. It’s just a sign that we’re really lucky.
- We actually DO mind being landlocked
Stuart Rankin / Flickr We’d love a beach. It would make us even better than we already are.
- Our winters are pretty depressing
ajgarrison3 / Flickr Bare trees. Bare lawns. Bare everything. No snow.
- That there actually are pretty places besides Tennessee
Wonderlane / Flickr We are the best, but California is nice too or something. And other places. Sure.
