11. I won $10 at the track in California
does that count?

I guess it would be KY (naturally...), OH (!), NY, IN, FL, CA, PA, CO, AZ, and LA and I think that's it. And Mexico.

40. Every one I've ever set foot in, except for DELAWARE. But...
But I don't hold a grudge, because Delaware is where
I first discovered the awesomely great sandwich
known as the "Cheeseburger Sub"...
(Yeah, I know you can get them anywhere, but I first
came across it in DELAWARE)

Believe me, my long-term LOVE of the Cheeseburger Sub
has had more impact on my life than most of my the ship-in-the-night
out-of-state sexual encounters have.



("Anastasia", if you're reading this, please don't be offended;
I will always treasure the memory of our night together, and
every woman I've been with since then owes you a "thanks" for
teaching me how to do that thing. (you know the thing I mean!)
I wouldn't trade my hours with you for all the thousands of
cheeseburger subs I've consumed in the last 25 years.)

41. I was married for many of these, so I don't know how lucky I am
Michigan (of course), Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Iowa, Nevada and Illinois. Ontario's a province, but it's on the list, too.
John
So are several other states, probably, which are slipping my 51-year-old mind.
Got married the second time in Nevada, which explains the outlier.
