I've lived in a couple places on the East Coast, generally in urban areas (and once in the mid-West), and somewhat surprisingly, when I told people I was from Connecticut...shortly after they would ask "Where you say you was from again? Canada?"
It didn't bother me because people don't talk much about Connecticut unless they think of the Maury Povich show, or WWE, which both, I think, are located in Stamford, CT.

Anyways, I had this Canada hat for a minute, and when I think of it, it's kinda ironic to even have. But whatever, I love it.
