11 Reasons No One In Their Right Mind Visits Indiana In The Winter

Indiana might not be one of the northernmost states, but considering part of our state borders one of the Great Lakes, we have a lot to say about our insane winters. We might make fun of other states for freaking out when there's a snow forecast, but that's only to try to make ourselves feel better about our brutal winters. In case you were planning a visit to the Hoosier state, here are 11 reasons why you should never, ever visit during the wintertime.

1. Everyone is miserable.

You won't find any of that Hoosier charm during the wintertime. No one is outside having fun or celebrating this frigid season.

2. No one even goes outside.

We might as well be bears, because everyone in Indiana basically hibernates in the winter. Go outdoors? In the cold? Nope, not happening.

3. There's no way to get exercise.

Because of all the snow, ice, and freezing cold temperatures, there's no way to get outside and get some exercise. Where would we even start?

4. There's nothing to even do.

Family friendly events and outdoor attractions only happen when it's warm out. There's nothing going on in the wintertime.

5. Sports are basically obsolete.

Winter sports might be a fun activity in other states, but don't expect any of that in Indiana. It just doesn't exist!

6. It's basically a lackluster season.

There's no magic, no fun, and no way to enjoy the winter weather.

7. Plus it's really ugly out.

Ugh, cold, wet snow. It's bad enough we have to deal with it, but it could at least be nice to look at or something!

8. You can't even drive.

You're basically prevented from going anywhere all season long...not that there's anywhere worth going.

9. We're just a land-locked, flyover state with nothing worth seeing.

Unless you like taking in miles of frozen lakes, ice, and snow.

10. There's no color in the winter.

It's basically white and shades of gray. Gross.

11. Winter feels like it will never end.

It just drags and drags. Then, in March, when we all get hopeful that Spring is finally here, it hits us with surprise snow and ice. Just lovely.

So if you were thinking of paying the Hoosier state a visit this winter, don't! It's bound to be a disappointment, what with all the incredible outdoor ice rinks, toboggan slides, and sledding spots. Even though you definitely won't want to, check out these attractions you can visit in Indiana this winter, you know, if you actually find yourself outdoors for some reason...

(In case you didn't catch it, this article is 100% sarcastic, because we all know Indiana is basically a winter wonderland!)
