1. No One Will Really Know Where Delaware Is<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

To most people outside of the East Coast, Delaware is just some little state somewhere over by New York. Don\u2019t expect people you meet around the country to accurately pin Delaware on a map anytime soon.<\/p>\n

2. They\u2019ll Know Even Less About What\u2019s In Delaware<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

If people can\u2019t even identify Delaware amongst other blobs on a map, expect them to know absolutely nothing about the state itself. They won\u2019t know where the capital is, what types of foods are popular, or what makes the Slower Lower so different.<\/p>\n

3. No One Will Really Understand Your \u201cFirst State\u201d Pride<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Everyone in Delaware loves to bring up the fact that they were the first state. Unfortunately, you\u2019ll find that to outsiders, this is nothing more than a trivial fact. If you want to celebrate coming in first place, you\u2019ll have to find a Delawarean to do so with.<\/p>\n

4. People Will Think Punkin\u2019 Chunkin\u2019 Is Insane<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Flinging pumpkins thousands of feet using variations of medieval weaponry? I guess when you put it that way, it\u2019s easy to see why outsiders might be shocked by these events.<\/p>\n

5. \u201cVinegar On Fries? You\u2019re Crazy!\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

While every Delawarean knows that no order of Thrashers fries is complete without the tasty bite of vinegar, this isn\u2019t a typical fry condiment most places in the country.
\nIf you want vinegar on your fries, you\u2019ll have to ask for the server for a bottle knowing there\u2019s a slim chance that the restaurant will have it.<\/p>\n

6. Your Tan Will Shock Everyone<\/h2>\n

When most Americans think of beach states, rarely does Delaware come to mind. Most people you encounter will be shocked to hear that you\u2019ve had your fair share of beach days that year, thankfully you\u2019ll have the beautifully bronzed skin to prove it.<\/p>\n

7. There\u2019s Mad Love For Dogfish Head<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

While most people probably don\u2019t know it\u2019s from Delaware, beer lovers around the country tend to associate Dogfish Head beer with excellence. Just hope you move somewhere where they actually have these delicious brews in stock.<\/p>\n

8. You\u2019ll Miss A Good Local Pizza Rivalry<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Whether you prefer Nicola\u2019s pizza or the pies from Grotto, it\u2019s hard to deny that both are delicious in their own way. Unless you move to another pizza mecca like Delaware, the only rivalry in the pizza world might mean choosing between Papa John\u2019s and Pizza Hut.<\/p>\n

9. 99 Cents Doesn\u2019t Always Mean 99 Cents<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re leaving Delaware, you\u2019d better get used to paying sales tax fast. While whatever is on the price tag might be what you pay in the Diamond State, some places like Tennessee have an additional 9% of the original price added to the final bill.<\/p>\n

10. Don\u2019t Expect To Find Many UDel Fans<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Come game day, expect to be cheering on your favorite team alone. You\u2019ll be lucky if you\u2019re even able to find a bar willing to throw the game on the television for you.<\/p>\n

11. Counties Can Get A Bit More Confusing<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Wikimedia Commons<\/div>\n

Thanks to its tiny size, Delaware only has 3 counties, the fewest of any U.S. state. The bigger states get, the more counties there are. Heck, Texas has over 250. Seriously, how is that possible?!<\/p>\n

12. There Aren\u2019t Always So Many Chickens<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User RJL20<\/div>\n

A huge part of the Delaware economy, chickens are said to outnumber people in this state 200 to 1. Unfortunately, you won\u2019t find this many feathered friends most places around the country. It would really be dumb luck if your new house was anywhere close to a chicken farm.<\/p>\n

13. You Won\u2019t Always Need A Pocket Full Of Toll Change<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User zzellers<\/div>\n

While Delaware uses the toll system, there are lots of states that don\u2019t. In most places, it\u2019s a rarity that you\u2019ll have to pay just to pass through a certain part of a road.<\/p>\n

14. Expect Longer Drives<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User gemsling<\/div>\n

Thanks to Delaware\u2019s tiny size, you can get anywhere in the state within a couple hours. Unfortunately, in most states a trip from one town to another can take several hours. Just driving from the top of California to the bottom can take as long as 17 hours.<\/p>\n

15. Your State Fair Was Better<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User Lee Cannon<\/div>\n

Delaware might be tiny, but that doesn\u2019t keep its residents from showing up in huge numbers to the annual state fair. With literally 1 in 3 people attending this event, it\u2019s one of the coolest state fairs in the country.<\/p>\n

16. Your Favorite Mascots Might Get Ragged On<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

When people hear that UDel\u2019s mascots are two Fightin\u2019 Blue Hens, expect a few strange looks. They are giant birds known mostly for making eggs, after all.<\/p>\n

17. It\u2019s A Long Drive To Get Your Wawa Fix<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User ryaninc<\/div>\n

While a trip to Wawa might be part of your daily routine in Delaware, this convenient store doesn\u2019t travel much outside of the East Coast. You\u2019ll most likely be forced to find a replacement when you leave.<\/p>\n

18. No One Else Cares So Much About License Plates<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User ryaninc<\/div>\n

While license plates act as a status symbol in the Diamond State, most people in America don\u2019t really care what number they have or what color their plate is. To them, every plate is the same. At best, you can get a cool vanity plate that says something funny.<\/p>\n

19. The Lack Of Good Cheesesteaks Can Be A Bit Daunting<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User eekim (cropped)<\/div>\n

Thanks to Delaware\u2019s close proximity to Philly, there are plenty of delicious cheesesteaks consumed every year in this state. However, the farther away from Philly you travel, the more mediocre the cheesesteaks tend to get. This is one thing you\u2019re sure to crave if you leave.<\/p>\n

20. And Get Used To Frozen Seafood<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User avlxyz<\/div>\n

Not every American state is lucky enough to have a coastline nearby, meaning seafood won\u2019t be quite as fresh. There\u2019s a good chance that if you get seafood out somewhere, it just won\u2019t live up to your expectations.<\/p>\n

21. Scrapple Is A Very Confusing Concept To Some People<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User Kevin Burkett<\/div>\n

Outside of the Delaware area, Scrapple is essentially a foreign word. People you meet elsewhere are likely to compare this blend of pork scraps, flour, and spices to the infamous SPAM.<\/p>\n

22. To Most, A Firefly Is Just A Bug<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Firefly Music Festival is the coolest event in the country that most people haven\u2019t heard of.
\nFeaturing huge artists every year, including Paul McCartney, Snoop Dogg, and Hozier on the 2015 lineup, it doesn\u2019t get much bigger than this. It will be hard to find an adequate replacement, regardless of where you are in the world.<\/p>\n

23. Drinking In The Morning Isn\u2019t Always So Acceptable<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User preston.rhea<\/div>\n

You\u2019ll never find a better Bloody Mary than you will in Delaware. Often topped with a variety of snacks and veggies, there\u2019s no better way to start off your morning after that big party you barely remember. Just don\u2019t forget that pitcher of water, too.<\/p>\n

24. No One Will Understand Why You Love Fall So Much<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User jfl1066<\/div>\n

It\u2019s hard to really understand how awesome the autumn season is in Delaware until you\u2019ve seen it with your own two eyes. As the foliage here seems to represent every single shade in the color spectrum, there are few things more awesome than taking a cool late-October hike.<\/p>\n

25. Dumplings Are Different Than You Thought<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User geraldford<\/div>\n

In Delaware, \u201cdumplings\u201d are thin, slippery, and square, drenched in tons of broth. This isn\u2019t really how they are anywhere else. In most places, \u201cdumplings\u201d can be noted for their thick, chewy texture. But don\u2019t worry, these are also delicious.<\/p>\n

26. You\u2019ll Miss Being So Close To Everything<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User Keith Allison<\/div>\n

One perk of being on the East Coast is that there are so many awesome cities, mountains, and shorelines nearby. Literally anything you want can be found within a few hours of driving.
\nMost of America isn\u2019t quite so convenient. For example, if you want a beach in Kansas, you\u2019re looking at either an expensive flight or a very, very long drive.<\/p>\n

27. Disc Golfing Isn\u2019t Typically Such A Big Deal<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User USAG_Humphreys<\/div>\n

With so many disc golf courses in the Diamond State, it\u2019s super easy to get your frolf on. If you\u2019re a fan of this sport, make sure you look into local courses before you pick a new home, as most places aren\u2019t as familiar with this outdoor activity.<\/p>\n

28. Fresh Food Isn\u2019t Always So Easy To Find<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User USDAgov<\/div>\n

Thanks to the many local farms in Delaware, it\u2019s always easy to find fresh ingredients. Most states don\u2019t have the same great agricultural infrastructure that Delaware has, making this just one more thing that puts the Diamond State a step above the rest.<\/p>\n

29. You\u2019ll Miss All The Awesome History<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User istolethetv<\/div>\n

Thanks to several hundred years of Americans living in the Diamond State, at times it can seem as if every single street in Delaware has a story to tell. Make sure you hear them all before you leave.<\/p>\n

30. No One Will Understand Why Delaware Is So Awesome<\/h2>\n

\"30<\/p>\n

Source: Flickr User Tom Hannigan<\/div>\n

Delaware often gets overlooked when it comes to awesome places in America to visit. Of course the locals aren\u2019t complaining as that means less tourists crowding their beautiful home.
\nIf you\u2019re leaving Delaware, it\u2019s a sure thing you\u2019ll miss everything from the delicious local cuisine to the friendliest people you\u2019ll meet on the East Coast. There\u2019s a good chance you\u2019ll be back for more soon.
