7 Things You Have To Do Before You’re An Official Hoosier

[Expat]

I guess I will have to go to the Dunes sometime... I try not to get that far West though...

 

[Sylvain]

Lol, yes! Actually, it's quite efficient these days. Maybe you'll just have to go when we kidnap you and move you here for good.

I only know about the DMV (or BMV) from what I've seen in TV shows and movies.
In the TV show "reaper" a demon works at the DMV since it's the closest thing to hell on earth.

It used to be bad here, but Mitch Daniels made a point of fixing it. And he did. I haven't spent more than 10 minutes in one in a long time.

My favorite BMV movie scene is in "Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy"

I read the book but haven't seen the movie.

3 of 7, farmer's market, guns, and BMV. Guess I'm more Kentuckian than Hoosier.

5/7 never been to the 500, and had never heard of sugar cream pie until I read about it here on INGO a few years back. Persimmon pudding? Yeah, hear about that and tenderloins all the time, but in my 50 years of living on the Ohio river, never a peep about sugar cream pie.

 

[db1959]

Done them all. I agree with the tenderloin though...
Sugar cream pies are great!

I refuse to give them the cllck bait traffic.....I will however deduce the 7 items based on the replies in this thread and I would say I am a 7/7.

I used to DREAD it. didn't know it was Mitch that made the experience much less painful.

It's like as you get older and even though a shot doesn't hurt like it did as a kid you still cringe.

That's the way I feel when I have to go to the BMV.

5/7
No pie for me (I'm diabetic)
Have not been to the dunes. Born and raised in the desert southwest and have seen enough sand in my lifetime.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

6/7 I've never been to the dunes

Same for me.

 

[Bennettjh]

Never been to dunes or the actual state fair. I did go to the bmv today, that's always miserable.

It does look like the least fun thing to do in the list ...

 

[Phase2]

Meh. 3/7. Not interested in letting others define my "hoosierness".

 

[MrAverage]

Having only scored a 2.5/7 (I didn't get out of the car at the Farmer's Market), I have to assume there is a bias against people without Samsung's virtual reality technology.

 

[OakRiver]

Let's see, I can check off;
- shoot a gun (did that less than two weeks after moving here)
- visit the BMV
- eat sugar cream pie (I had no idea that even existed until last month)

That breaded tenderloin looks real good too.

 

[Slawburger]

List was probably created by someone in another state just googling state info.

That being said: 7/7.

2/7

1. What in the heck a sugar cream pie?
2. I've been to the 400 several times but never the 500.
3. I grow my own produce.
4. I hate crowds.
5. I'm not driving across the state to see large piles of sand.

 

[dvd1955]

Been to the dunes several times years ago. Does anyone know if they ever re-opened Mount Baldy? It was closed last time I was in the area, I think because someone got sucked into some type of sink hole.

Me neither, but i like the lake.
