@Tsundererra: Florida Man is from all over. There are some really ... weird... areas of Florida. And as my son has told me, Florida Man exists partly because apparently our laws don't restrict news the same way as other places, so "Florida Man does X stupid thing" becomes a headline, whereas in other places, it would never make the news...

@Wildfire: Oh, I didn’t know that. I think you guys also get more traction because some of the things those people do are weirder than what I see in my local news, but we also don’t have Alligators.
@Priestess of Pie: YEP. You nailed the weird part of the country. Wish you could extend that circle a bit more to cover all of Georgia too.
@Tsundererra: yeah, the alligators definitely add to it! Some of the people are just really stupid ... but again, according to my son, who's looked in to this, it's more about our laws not limiting news the same way as other states. And Florida is big. There's lots of opportunity for somebody to do something stupid enough to make a headline
