I agree totally. It has always amazed me that once you cross that river, the culture is just very different. I used to work for a company that required me to go to Evansville, IN for meetings and such. Once you leave Owensboro, KY or Henderson, depending on which way you went, the people were just very different once you were in Indiana.

I think 'pop' is used way more in the eastern half of the state (generally east of US 127), even among people who are otherwise very Southern.
I just googled this map and I am right apparently
