Love the Fifty Nifty states song! My sister's class sang that in elementary school and I would watch the VHS recording over and over so I could learn the song myself. I loved it when my oldest son sang it in elementary school (pretty sure I freaked him out because I knew it too). We live in Iowa, but are still connected to Nebraska because of family & football--DS even yelled out "Nebraska" at the end of the song instead of Iowa!

I've won lots of bets over the years by knowing the "50 Nifty" song.
However, if you ask me where some states are on a map, I'm useless.

I am Australian, but currently call Munich, Germany home. We've been here 10 years now and have no idea when we'll go back. I love Munich. ❤️❤️ Lucky you! I am on the best coast of Michigan. Lifer.

I do not know and have never heard of the Nifty Fifty song!! I cannot believe my poor education. Blame Maryland public schools We must have someone from the District, too! I know you were limited to 50, but I'm hoping we'll get my birth town in!

We learned this in 5th grade chorus for the Bicentennial concert. My chorus teacher used to punch the air to emphasize New Hampshire...New Jersey...New Mexico (pause) New York Was this a her thing or official music teacher thing? LOL, I think just her thing. Here, we all just shout "TEXAS!!" when it's time. I always feel kind of bad for the states that pass quickly through the rundown. Texas gets a nice pause after it. Haha! Im in New York so we got to go after the pause. Wyoming must really think they're really special at the end

I live just south of Brussels, Belgium. But I call Minnesota home. I was born and raised there and we plan to retire there in a few years, when we are done with our European tour!

If megmc comes back, Montana will get a vote.
I didn't realize we were so California heavy. We are enormous in terms of population, so it makes sense.

Dammit, after reading down the list, now I have 50 Nifty United States stuck in my head. Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas ... That was my first thought too!

So far, no one has checked in from Alabama, Maine, Montana, and Rhode Island If this poll had been done June 4th or before, I would have checked off Alabama. I/we moved to Florida from Alabama on June 5th. Any peas from near Orlando/Kissimmee? 😀
