11 Kansas Stereotypes That Really Aren't Too Far Off The Mark
Have you ever heard a stereotype about our state that you just know is true? These Kansas stereotypes aren’t really wrong at all, but that doesn’t mean they’re bad stereotypes. In fact, we love our state how it is! There’s nothing that we love more than these quirks that make our state uniquely ours. Let’s check it out!

Whether that's due to a four-wheeler or a day at the lake, mud isn't your enemy in Kansas.

When the fair rolls around, your whole schedule revolves around it. With any luck, you've got something entered in the fair and you win this year!

We don't run around looking like those "country bumpkini" types, but if you see someone wearing cowboy boots that look old and dirty, you can bet that they work hard and play hard. Farming is a hard job, and it takes a good amount of Kansans to do it right.

We don't want to sit around silently when we can have a small conversation about sports, an incoming storm, or people we both might know. Why not try to make more friends?

Tornadoes are both cool and dangerous, but most of us go our whole lives without seeing big ones like this. Not everyone is cut out to be a storm chaser, that's for sure.

Raining one day, sunny the next, and snowing later on. Sometimes it even happens all in one day!
If you already know you love this beautiful state, then you’ll find that these traits definitely apply to you as well.
