17 Questions Everyone Asks When They Find Out You’re From North Carolina
Maybe you’re on a business trip, maybe you’re going out of state for college, maybe you’ve moved a few states over. Either way, you’re sure to be bombarded with questions about your North Carolina heritage and ‘just what’s up’ with the Tar Heel State in general. While some are a little outlandish, these seventeen I’ve heard time and time again.

I can't tell you how many times I've been asked this.

Depends on the person.

Honestly those little mason jars just appear like it's Christmas.

Everything. From the people, to the culture, to the scenery...we're so lucky to be Tar Heels.
