68% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

Probably would have been higher but I knew what Crawfish were supposed to be called . Lived in Baton Rouge for three years (Best food in the world)

73% Dixie. Born in New York. College in Joisey. 1 year in Michigan, the next 37 in Texas. That's about 62% of my life in Dixie. Looks right to me...

96% Dixie.

Who woulda thunk a guy from Tennessee with most all of his extended family from Alabama coulda scored that?

Oh well, if any of ya'll ever come to TN, feel free to drop by my house for a coke. LOL!

I asked about 15 people I know this question (from various parts of the country) and everyone said the same thing sans 1.

Everyone pronounces cot like pot. They pronounce caught (kawt) like bought.

The only person who pronounced them the same was from Boston (Bastin) and despite going to college up there I still can't understand about half the words they use
