    Nashville TN, Chatanooga TN, and Huntsville. Pretty accurate even though I grew up in KS, everyone in my family is from TN, and that's where I go for Christmas every year

    Haha pretty good. Ive lived in Birmingham the past 3 years, and it pegged me as Huntsville and Montgomery... Birmingham is almost exactly halfway between them on I-65.

    finally got it to work. Minneapolis/ St.Paul Minn. , Stockton Ca. and Modesto Ca. are the cities. I can see the first but the other two... NOT !!!!!

    The map shows the darkest red in North Dakota though which would be right.

    Eliminates that slant-eyed Oriental look. Makes you look more round-eyed Western.

    Close enough. Had me in either Worcester, Springfield, or Boston MA. I'm assuming they don't include any Maine "cities" on there any who. Maine was my darkest red state.

    I'm laughing right now realizing it probably uses your IP address to target your location in much the same way websites target ads to your location.... the quiz is just a fun distraction to how they peg everyone so closely.

    Louisville is 2 hours away.

    Pretty good if not using the ip address.

    Put me Springfield, MO/Lexington, KY/Wichita, KS

    I've always called them crawdads, that got me for KS and MO and the drive through liquor stores got me for KY. I've never give. Them a name.

    I had a friend take it who is not from here and it put them where they are from. No way it uses an IP address.

    It put me in Springfield MO, Louisville or Lexington. I'm about 5 hours north of Springfield, but my mom's side of the family is from about 25 miles east of Springfield.
