While Ohio gets a lot of jokes about being nothing but cornfields, there's actually a lot more to it, and anyone who grew up there knows that. If you grew up in Cleveland, you can relate to these 12 things:
1. You went to Cedar Point at least once a year, sometimes twice.
Many people you knew had season passes as well so they went a lot.
2. You still remember going to Geauga Lake.
Rest in peace, amusement park of my childhood.
3. Your idea of a "beach day" is Lake Erie.
Who needs to go all the way down to the ocean when Lake Erie is practically in our backyard?
4. You REALLY love Cleveland sports.
Doesn't matter how bad they get, you always support them.
5. You judged people based off of what high school they went to.
When I go on Tinder at home, I will almost always swipe left on someone who went to my rival high school.
6. You know all about "Holy War."
The stadium would always be packed when St. Eds and St. Ignatius played each other.
7. You probably spent a lot of time in the Metroparks, or "Metros."
Hiking, wading in the creek, or just hanging out, you spent a lot of time here.
8. You remember where you were when the Cavs won the title in 2016.
It was a big moment for the city.
9. You've been to Honey Hut at least once, even if you aren't the biggest fan.
Ice cream made with honey instead of sugar? You'll try it for sure.
10. You probably hung out at a Sheetz or Getgo.
Yes, they are gas stations but the food is amazing.
11. Although they both had their merits, you were either a Beechwood or Strongsville mall person.
Beechwood might have had a few nicer stores, but Strongsville had a movie theater.
12. You might be from Ohio, but you're proud of it.
Wouldn't want to call anywhere else home.
