This is true! My husband, born and reared in Gainesville (in the South, they raise animals and rear children), is from the South. I was born and raised in St. Petersburg and am not from the South. I think the South ends south of Ocala.

But wouldn't that make Tampa the North of not-the-South? :dunno:

I'm so confused!!!:wacko: Wait, no, I just read this again. I think I get it. Mr OL has relatives in St Pete and they do not have southern accents or praticularly "southern". BUT, fyi, I had NO IDEA where the university of south fla was. I would have guessed Miami or somwhere like that.

Can one still walk into a restaurant and order sweet tea? That's the border...:cool:

You are right!

Sweet tea is orderable only at Sonny's. So I guess Tampa is not the South. Although South Tampa (where I live) is more Southern than North Tampa, but not enough to be called the South. :D

Oh, and Orlando is NOT the South.

Got it OL? :D
