Well, that’s another video, buddy. Check it out. Anyway, Missouri and Arkansas The Show-Me State and The Natural State Two bordering states where the South kind of meets the West and Midwest in THESE United States And, I know I have talked some trash about Missouri throughout my life being a Kansas boy, but I gotta admit it’s one of my favorite places to visit, and I only don’t visit Arkansas as much since it’s a bit further of a drive for me. There’s a relatively new rivalry between the sports teams of the two major universities in each state. (Missouri Tigers and Arkansas Razorbacks). The football rivalry is known as The Battle Line Rivalry. Missouri is a Midwestern state, but much of Southern Missouri kind of makes it seem like a Southern state. Arkansas is definitely a Southern state, but parts of it, like Northwest Arkansas in particular, somehow feel Midwestern. So if you like the South and Midwest, these two states are for you. The population of Missouri is more than twice that of Arkansas. A big reason why are Missouri’s two major metropolitan areas- Kansas City and St. Louis, both wonderful cities that I am very, very familiar with. Both metros have more than 2 million people.
