Texans have more pride than probably all of the other states combined, so admitting that we actually like aspects of the other states will only happen in the privacy of our own heads, of course. Here are some things we will never confess to out loud, but we probably have thought from time to time:
- That other states might actually be prettier than ours, in some aspects.

- That Memphis might actually have better BBQ (just by a hair, though).

- That Texas is just way too big sometimes.

- That California has better beaches (or better anything, for that matter).

- That we’re jealous of the states up north that get an actual winter.

- That Austin isn’t so bad, after all.

- That maybe we actually aren’t the only state in the nation.

- That maybe our food is just a smidge TOO big.

- That we might be a tad on the arrogant side.

What else will people from Texas never admit aloud, but secretly believe?
