Oopsie, fixed the spelling

There's a reason behind every single one. I live in FL, lived in MA, been to most of the rest, have friends in UT, AL, Bill Clinton is why I know AR, McCain is why I know AZ, and I don't know why I know Albany is the capital of NY.

I don't even remember if we learned state capitals in school. :eek:

I know we did states in 5th grade, but I don't remember capitals.

Public school FTL!!

Not to mention that our 5th grade teacher was arrested in class for child pornography.

In addition to the obvious ones, Des Moines, Iowa has always been an easy one to remember for me.

I can do quite a few only because at one point I was helping a coworker who was considering taking the citizenship test and he had to know the states and state capitals.

wikipedia ftw!

It also helps that I still remember this song which has all of the states alphabetically in order....>_>

Please remove Minneapolis from MN. The state has only one capital city, not two.

FWIW, I still remember all 50.
