[napalm417]

You Might Be From A Small Town If...

1. You can name everyone you graduated with.
2. You know what FFA is.
3. You ever went to parties at a pasture, barn, or in the middle of a dirt road.
4. Your idea of a FUN weekend was riding around parking lots because that is where EVERYBODY was.
5. Your idea of an EXCITING weekend was watching a fight in the parking lot.
6. You ever went cow-tipping or snipe hunting.
7. School gets canceled for city, county, or state events.
8. You were ever in the Homecoming parade.
9. You have ever gone home for Homecoming.
10. Everyone thought it was really cool to date someone from the neighboring town.
11. You had senior skip day.
12. The whole school went to the same party after graduation.
13. You don't give directions by street names, but instead, like this: Turn right by Mark's house, go two blocks east past Henderson's, and it's four houses left of the track field.
14. The country club golf course had only 9 holes. (Or there wasn't even one.)
15. You can't help but date a friend's ex-boyfriend/girlfriend.
16. The people in the city dress funny, then your town picks up on the trend a few years later.
17. The football coach suggested that you haul hay for the summer to get stronger.
18. Directions are given using "the" stoplight as a reference.
19. The city council meets at the coffee shop.
20. Your "letter jacket" was worn after your 19th birthday.
21. You decide to walk somewhere for exercise and 5 people pull over and ask if you need a ride.
22. Your teachers call you by your older siblings' names.
23. Your teachers remember when they taught your parents.
24. The closest Taco Bell or Burger King is at least 30 miles away.
25. So is the closest shopping mall.
26. You have a good laugh reading this because you know they're all true.
27. Then you forward it to everyone who lives in your town (because you know them all)!!
