    I'm in southwestern Oklahoma, seems I missed the cut off by about 50 miles ;)

    Was born in Oklahoma...now live in Southern California...still have my accent. Yes we Okies are southern

    I'm not originally from Oklahoma, but I live here now and have always been confused if Okies are southern or mid-western. It's like we're caught in the middle and not accepted by either!

    How can you tell the south from the north...

    If drinking sweet tea is like licking a sugar block and "bless your heart" follows just about any piece of gossip... :-p

    Um...is NC no longer considered the South? B/c I consider myself a born and raised proud Southerner.

    It isn't SEC country, so I don't consider NORTH Carolina to be part of the south ;)

    Oh snap...no you didn't.

    Well...I don't consider South Florida to be the south b/c they're all a bunch of retired Canadians, but you included them on your list.

    I guess I'll just eat my field peas and fatback with my other Tobacco Road friends.

    Whaaat? Us NC girls are about as southern as you get! ;)

    Agreed- South Florida should definitely NOT be included! I can't ever imagine someone from Miami being considered "southern" haha!
  • Yeah I live in Tn and work in Ga!

    By south I mean TX, LA, AR, KY, TN, MS, AL, GA, and FL. Just curious if we have any southerners on here...

    :) technically VA, DC, NC, SC, and MD count too since they're south of the Mason-Dixon line that separates the northern states from the southern states.
  • To be correct the Southern states are listed as Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware, Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas. I've lived in a few but now I'm in Arizona.

    Ya'll, I thought this thread meant from the locational south, not football south.
    I was born in NC, lived here all my life except for a brief period in ALbany, GA.
    I am by far a "Southerner" by all definitions, except college football i guess. I'm NOT a 'tarheel' though.

    :drinker:

    Southern England doesn't count then :cry:

    I'm still a Southerner though :grumble:

    Edited: I can't spell the name of my own country :)

    Snap, I am from the SouthWest of England!

    Surely, you just overlooked North Carolina. Because we North Carolininans are most definitely southern! :)

    AMEN!!!

    This is a funny topic. I live right outside Nashville, but I am from Chicago. So I'm a yankee, its ok, I live in the South, I am not a Southerner.

    The Carolinas count as the South! I'm from NC, living in SC.
  • A New Yorker at heart, but a Southerner by choice when we re-located to Georgia some 7 years ago!

    Kentucky girl right here!! :)

    Not kidding or trying to be mean, BUT does Kentucky really consider itself the South?

    Have you ever been to KY? Yeah, we are in the South.. :glasses:
