State Pride & Enthusiasm: What Makes Texas, Texas?

For sure Texas can be polarizing but I can tell you why. Most of the people in other states do not carry such an intense pride of where they are from. They just don’t understand how anyone can feel that good about where they are from or where they live. Every state has its pride, and it should, wherever you’re from—whether it’s Hawaii, Vermont or even little Rhode Island.

Texas is about Pride & People. It is a place where people still believe in God and Friday night football IS a religion. Ask any Texan where you find it, and they won’t need a map. It is at the intersection of their heart and soul.
