- Brag about the state flag
Austin Kirk / Flickr You won’t find many (if any) other states bragging about their state flag. Ours is best. Period.
- And having the most state pride
Alan Levine / Flickr Marylanders are obsessed with Maryland and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
- Picking crabs
Peter Walsh / Flickr Challenge us to a crab picking contest and we’d win every single time. Most of us learned this intricate skill when we were tots!
- Singing the National Anthem

- We practically keep Old Bay in business
Mike Mozart / Flickr Sure, you can find Old Bay in other states, but not many put this spicy seasoning on everything. Corn, fries, eggs… nothing is off limits when it comes to Old Bay!
- And we’re also the best at guzzling down orange crushes
Harrison Group / Flickr This refreshing drink pairs well with seafood, and with summertime in general.
- We’re always up for a historic day trip
James Walsh / Flickr Whether it’s old covered bridges or battlefields, Marylanders embrace the history all around.
- And exploring small towns
crystalndavis / Flickr The Old Line State is chock-full of charming small towns. From the mountains to the eastern shore, there’s always more to see and do.
- Supporting small businesses
Joe Haupt / Flickr Why shop at big chain stores when so many great small businesses are sprinkled throughout the state? We’re happy to shop small!
- Appreciate the beach
Linda Rain 714 / Flickr We always look forward to beach season and embrace the sand and the sun when warm weather finally arrives.
- Going on hikes
Jerry Edmundson / Flickr Many are surprised to learn just how many trails there are throughout Maryland. From mountain overlooks to waterside paths, the nature-infused journeys are endless.
