Every town has its own little things no one knows about except the people living there. North Carolina of course has many of those unique things from having beaches not mountains, but there are some things that you have probably never heard of If you have never lived in Greenville, North Carolina. These things may be strange to you but to us that do live here, it is just part of our everyday lives.

1. The old and new movie theater

Greenville has two movie theaters. Carmike 12 Cinemas is considered the "Old Theater" and Regal Greenville Grande Stadium 14 the "New Theater." The reason for these names are pretty self explanatory. We use both of them but most people use the new one.

2. ECU pirates is the only acceptable college football team

If you have even just briefly passed through Greenville, you most likely have seen some sort of East Carolina University colors or signs. Most of Greenville's residence are obsessed with the football team and if you dare support the other teams, you better watch out. If it isn't purple and gold there is something wrong.

3. Phases for days

Greenville goes through Store phases all the time. Once it was frozen yogurt, and now it is mattresses. It is expected to see at least one mattress store on each road in town. Because one town can never have enough mattress stores!

4. Enough restaurants to last you every day of the year

One thing Greenville is known for is the amount of restaurants we have. Practically on every street there is some sort of restaurant. We have all different types from Mexican, Chinese, Italian, barbecue, to pancakes. We have it all!

5. The Three High Schools

There are only three high schools in greenville. D.H. Conley, J.H. Rose, and South Central. The rivalry between Conley and Rose is extreme. Even if we don't even like the sport that is being played, if its Conley against Rose you are going.

6. Bojangles

if you don't like Bojangles, you are considered strange. Everyone is obsessed with their Southern fried chicken, Cajun fries and sweet tea. This is one of the most southern fast food/restaurants there is. If you want a real taste of the south, Bojangles is the place to go.

No one here likes water. Everyone either lives off of sweet tea of mountain dew. But make sure you add a pound of sugar to your tea or it isn't sweet enough!

8. Southern trucks

You will most likely see at least one truck that is lifted crazy high with their Instagram username on the back of their truck, and illegally tinted windows. That's just how we roll.

9. The deadly summers

Summer in Greenville gets extremely hot. For most states a 90 degree heat index is scorching. For us that's nothing when our heat index is 109 degrees for two weeks in a row.

10. Promotion cars

Greenville Has a ton of cars that people deck out with those big rims and a soda company on the side of the car. We have all thought about doing it ourselves at least once.

These are just some of the many things that make Greenville, North Carolina unique. Even though some of us may move or leave for college, Greenville will always be home.
