83% Texan!

Fourth generation Texan here, and the questions that threw me were those "new age" type! LOL I did great on the "traditional ones"...such as Texas OUR Texas as the state song, bluebonnets as state flower, etc.

Strange, although maybe not, since it is "traditional" I did "better" on the "Southern" quiz, than I did the Texas.

On a tangent, how many of y'all have tried this one?

The relationship of Texas to the rest of the states which formed the Old Confederacy (all of which, including Texas, are the historical South), has always been a source of interest and study to me. Anyway...here it is :

It told me I'm 84% Texan!

By the way, I live in Kentucky and have never lived in Texas, but I really want to move there.

56% for me, I know my Mexican food (and any other food if it is within reach). My wife got 47%, not bad since she has never been to Texas. 3 days and that will change.

You are 96% REAL Texan!!

High five, you're a complete Texan. People from other states should tremble in your presence because they're simply not worthy. Let them bow before you and convey their undying adoration to you while they announce their true desire to be Texan.



I suspect that 4% was because I disagree with the reason given for what "Keep Austin Weird" means. And, given that I knew the gentleman who coined it at the time that he did so, I suspect I'm right and they're wrong.
