What surprised me the most was running into other people from WV. My Marshal hat attracted them. I think the only place I didn't see any was at the Frankfort airport and that might have been because I was most drinking in the bar with some workmates who were also on the way home while I was waiting for my flight.
I remember when I was in Korea once and asked me where I was from and I said the United States..
He said “No zhit Sherlock, what state are you from”
It was my first time there and I realized how well they know us afterwards, they have heard of WV and capitol of Charleston…
