Each state has its own unique culture, a way of doing things and a way of living. With that culture comes some norms and respectable actions that out of staters and visitors should be aware of. North Carolinians are generally very nice, southern people, but these 15 things might have us getting our britches in a bunch.
7. Underplay the Duke V UNC rivalry - it's only the greatest in the nation. For that matter, all college basketball in North Carolina. Go home, Maryland.
10. Turn down an offer to just get in the car and drive around. With beautiful roads everywhere, it's always good for the mind and soul to hit the open road in North Carolina.
15. Focus on the bad. To an outsider, North Carolina might not be stellar in terms of politics, but we are an amazing state with beautiful cities, towns, mountains, beaches...everything. And if you give us a chance, you'll realize North Carolinians are some of the nicest, laid back, hospitable southern people you'll ever meet.
I feel like I could go on and on with this list, but for now, it’s a nice start. What else would you add and what have out-of-staters done that makes you mad?
