How many States can you name in 10 minutes?

I managed 37, missing:

Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia.

I can't believe I missed Arizona, Nevada, and North and South Dakota. The others, less surprising.

I managed 37, missing:
[Sweet Home] Alabama, Delaware, Idaho, Kentucky [Fried Chicken], [Gay Marriage] Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, [Jimmy!] Ohio, Oregon, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

I can't believe the ones I missed, or some of the ones I remembered.

For the lulz, Simon. For the lulz.

Patrick and I tried playing this with named Exalted cities. That was amusing.

I got 43 missing:
Connecticut, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Wyoming,

Although I call foul on Connecticut... Missed it 'cause I couldn't spell it.

I had to go look up Massachusetts independently to be able to get it right...

Got them all with 1:02 to spare. I had 48, then after 5 minutes of nothing, I realized I forgot Wisconsin and Wyoming, the freak states.

Though a few weeks ago, I was bored and decided to list all the US states and their postal abbreviations, so I had a little practice.

I got them all with 4:42 remaining *coughs*

I had 49 with 6 minutes to go, and eventually realized I forgot Nebraska. (mostly thanks to the fact that the weather came on and showed about half the states with their abbreviations...>.>)

Although, in my defense, back in 8th grade...or maybe 7th...me and Cathy Wong learned all the states and their capitals and would test each other periodically to try and remember them better. I guess it really stuck with me.
