I like how you casually put the "haveyoubeenthere" question in the tags. I wonder how many people will read that. The majority of the users will probably not even read the post itself.
By the way, I have not been there so far. I have not visited any part of the USA so far.
Of the 747 upvotes, it would be interesting to see how many people read it. You are probably correct. Hopefully you will get a chance to visit the US someday.
