Smack in the middle of our great nation is a state that requires some
explanation. To east and west coasters who'll come right out and ask ya,'
"Is there anything of interest in the State of Nebraska?"
It's true we don't have mountains all decked out in snow, but we do have the
world's biggest live chicken show. We're the makers of Spam. We invented Kool
Aid, and this is where the first Reuben sandwich was made.
Our insect, the Honeybee. Our bird, the Meadowlark. The strobe light, our
creation, works best in the dark. Governmentally speaking, we're a freak of
nature, since we have the only one-house state legislature.
On Arbor Day, when you plant a tree, remember that it started in Nebraska
City. We were once called a desert, but that name didn't take, since we have
the country's largest underground lake.
We have the world's largest forest, all planted by hand, and more miles of
rivers than any state in the land.
The College World Series calls Omaha "home," and yes, this is where the
buffalo used to roam (until we shot 'em).
We were the first State in the Nation to finish our Interstate section, and
the first to run two women in the gubernatorial election (against each other).
We invented 9-1-1 emergency communication, and we're the number one producer
of center pivot irrigation.
Our woolly mammoth fossil is the largest ever found, and our monumental "Carhenge"
is certain to abound.
