Every Midwesterner has a different reason for loving the Midwest. Some cite the friendly people, always there to help out a neighbor. Some love it for the sports teams, which are many and well-supported. Some love the sprawling natural beauty, from dunes to lakes and back again.
Me? I love the Midwest because it feels like home, no matter where you go. You can roll up to a diner in Indianapolis or a tailgate in Oshkosh and be treated like family. Sure, you may be unaccustomed to their lingo, and wonder what the heck they mean when they say "scotcheroo," but you'll find out soon enough and odds are, you'll love it. You might have heard of Southern hospitality, but a hug from a mom who grew up in the suburbs of Chicago begs to differ. We may not be the loudest or the proudest, but we have a lot to offer. Especially in the way of memes.
