Shoutout to all of the "Connecticutians," or "Nutmeggers," or "Connecticuters."

1. You have gotten stuck in traffic on the Merritt way too many times.

2. You have been on more field trips to Mystic Aquarium and Mystic Seaport than you can count.

3. You still struggle about whether to support the Red Sox or the Yankees.

4. New Haven is where the pizza is – Pepe’s Pizzeria? Yes, please.

5. Odds are you’ve been to a country concert at the Meadows, regardless of whether or not you like country music.

6. You probably live within a 20-minute radius from a prep school, and you know someone who goes to one.

7. You run on Dunkin’.

8. You know exactly where this photo was taken.

9. You know how to spell Connecticut (without sounding it out).

Connect-i-cut, c'mon guys it's not that hard!

10. You still wish the Whalers hadn't left town so that you could support a professional team in your home state.

11. You have the on and off-peak schedules memorized for Metro-North.

12. In your lifetime you have worn something from either Vineyard Vines or Lilly Pulitzer.

13. You will defend "The Sound" until the very end, even though you know the Rhode Island beaches are slightly better.
