lol To be fair I think all states have them.
I'm in NY and I once asked this girl ( she dropped out in 10th grade) what country was north of the United States? She didn't know.

That's okay, I once met someone who lived in Blaine Washington (now this town's northern limit sits on the Canadian border) who thought Canada had snow 365 days of the year. No kidding, he could have spit and hit Canada. That's how people think.

Jay Leno isn't British.
Also, lots of Canadians have done it. It's pretty much half of the comedy we have up here.
I don't find it all that impressive. It's like beating a retarded kid in a long-jump.

Half the comedy in Canada is selecting random stupid Americans?
Canada just keeps sounding more boring.

Don't worry about it. The dry-humour season can be a long and nasty one sometimes, in the great white north.

A [insert target of insults here] comes home and finds his wife in bed with another man.
He gets a gun out of the drawer and points it at his own head.
His wife starts chuckling.
"I don't know what you're laughing about," he says, "You're next!"

Well, you have to have a pretty foolish yourself not to instantly realize that a camera on any normal person walking down the street, will instantly forget things they know well, and have a spike in blood pressure that will all but eliminate their real IQ. Couple with that, that the intelligent ones are deleted, and possibly avoided, and the fact that there really are some un-educated people out there...and bam.. you have an uneducated research study, that is trying to prove americans stupid, that makes a mockery of any real survey, ie making them stupid....except...its obviously for entertainment purposes...so the only real stupid people, would be actual viewers that one, assumed they would be unaffected by the camera, and two, are looking at an accurate representation of the American public.
That all being said....there's always room for improvement.
In the end, those videos are like using the "Girls Gone Wild" videos to research American's breast size.
Sure, they are fun to watch, but I caution anyone who is visiting the states to be warned that there was not a fair distribution of American breasts interviewed in those videos either....thankfully.

JR is just pissy because he had to drive to Michigan to see what a good looking football field looks like. Plus I have NUMEROUS stories of weirdos I met while visiting PA!! I never knew so many crazy people could be in one state.

Very well Jonesy. I've a good mind to report this post as you are being a total anti-
insert target of insults here-ist. That sort of bigotry will no longer be allowed on this site. I mean really
insert target of insults here are people too you know, and they have feelings as well.

Please dont compare Beaver stadium to Michigan Stadium. How can 1,000 Penn State fans at Michigan be louder than 100,000 + Michigan fans at their own house?.....oh.......the score. Nevermind
