Скачать или смотреть 10 Texas Stereotypes That Are Completely Accurate. Or Are They?

Texas isn't Texas anymore.

Texas. A state that’s been around for a long time. If you live there you’ve heard it all before - the stereotypes of a true Texan. But are they true? Or false. If you’re from Texas, I think you’ll find this interesting because you’ll learn a lot more about your state. If you’re not a resident, then too bad for you. Cause Texas is awesome.

But don’t move here, they don’t need any more people.

Let’s jump right in - a bunch of Texas stereotypes fact or fiction. By a non-Texan.

We’re gonna begin our fact vs fiction Texas breakdown here at a NASCAR race. That’s pretty conservative right? Now, the question is - are Texas mostly conservatives as the stereotype claims?

Well, sorta.

As it stands now, Texas is about 53% conservative versus 43% liberal. The other 4% are non affiliated or independents. So, the answer is yes, but not as conservative as you might think.

But if you look back in past political elections, in the 100 years from the mid 1800s to the 1970s, Texas was a very democratic state. It might surprise you that it took until 1972 for the conservative party to become the dominant one here.

There’s been some ups and downs, but there hasn’t been a year since 1976 that more people voted for liberal politics here than conservative ones.

Is everything bigger in Texas? That’s like their state motto right? Actually, no, it’s ‘Friendship’ Okay that’s kinda basic. I thought Texas had an awesome state slogan.

Here’s a list of other state slogans, which are also, pretty lame. Some of these aren’t even in English what the what the? I think New Hampshire’s ‘Live Free or Die’ is pretty good. Hope? Really Rhode Island.

Okay, so while “Friendship” is the official state motto here, Everything’s Bigger in Texas is the unofficial slogan. But is that true?

While we don’t have a way to measure every single thing in every state to compare them to Texas’’ sizes, we can show some examples of how Texas likes to go BIG.

Speaking of football, there’s a stereotype that everyone in Texas loves football. Is that true? Well, no, because there is certainly at least one person here who doesn’t like football. But in terms of sports TV watch time, West Virginia, Wyoming and Pennsylvania watch the MOST sports overall.

Look at this - Texas is all the way down at 43rd for total sports hours watched each week. And, the most popular sport on TV here - golf.

I’ll bet many of you in Texas didn’t even know that.
