Hating on Mississippi is an age-old Southern tradition.

Unless you're from Mississippi, then you hate on Alabama.

By any number of metrics, Mississippi is the least developed, most backwater state.

My own personal metrics: Everyone's got that once racist uncle. Mine moved gleefully to Alabama. I have never known anyone who moved to Mississippi. Or from there!

I bet MS has some amazing old homes out in the swamp with great fishing.
