11 Questions You Can Only Answer If You’re From Tennessee

We have a lot of folks coming to visit our sweet southern state of Tennessee, so it causes a bit of confusion - who are the REAL Tennesseans? We asked around to pick up some solid questions that only a true Tennessee native would be able to answer, and we have a feeling they're going to blow you away. Curious? We have ELEVEN of them for you!

11) Can you drive in the snow?

No.

10) Can you sing all the words to "Ol' Rocky Top?"

Loud and proud, since we could talk.

9) What accent...?

We all talk the same...? Every generation. You've obviously got hearing problems - we talk JUST fine.

8) What's the Bell Witch?

Only the most terrifying true ghost story in the entire US. Read up on your history, man.

7) What's the weather going to be like tomorrow?

Well, my friend, it's Tennessee. So no one ever knows. Ever.

6) When is tax free weekend...?

It is in August - we have a countdown on the calendar. Is it TAX FREE WEEKEND YET?!

5) Where are you on Sunday mornings?

Um, CHURCH. Unless we're looking to get a whoopin' later!

4) Who's playing on Sunday...?

We will know. Every. Single. Time.

3) Yes, yes - y'all is a word.

And we don't even care if you spell it wrong. Tennesseans know it's a feeling, a way of talkin', not just a simple word.

2) Who's that singing on the radio?

Johnny, June, Patsy or George - Tennesseans know them all.

1) Where's the best fried chicken?

Obviously at Mama's.

Could you answer all of them?
