I’ve spent the last six posts detailing some of the reasons why I think John and Hank should consider making a stop in the state of Ohio on their Tour de Nerdfighting.

I’ll be honest. Most of them were rather silly (although that last one about COSI is pretty legit.)

But by far the most legitimate reason I think John and Hank should come to Ohio is what I listed as the number 82.

Since I made that list that number has grown to 90, and in reality it is a much, much larger number.

There are 90 members (and counting) currently in the “Ohio Nerdfighters” group on facebook. We’ve got a nice little community of devoted Nerdfighters that would LOVE to have John and Hank come by to visit. And there are way more of us out there…

And I don’t mean to brag, but us Ohio Nerdfighters have contributed some pretty great stuff to Nerdfighteria over the years.

One of the very first “nerd jokes, nerd jokes” jokes? You know why people in Dayton use Google? Its because “Dayton, Ohio” anagrams to “I don’t Yahoo”.

The Giant Squid of Anger Shirt? Drawn by an Ohio Nerdfighter

The Pizza John Shirt?  Based on a meme started by an Ohio Nerdfighter…

So anyway…. I’ll leave this post here, but suffice it to say, Ohio is made of awesome, don’t you think?

7 Things That Make Ohio Awesome: Part Six

COSI, or the Center of Science and Industry, is located in our capital city of Columbus, Ohio. On the surface it is merely a children’s science museum. Which is cool, don’t get me wrong.

But then you start the Adventure! This is, quite literally, the most made of awesome exhibit I have ever had the chance to explore. Upon stepping into the exhibit, you find yourself transported to an archeological dig site where an ancient city has been unearthed. After an introduction the story of the “Valley of the Unknown” you are let loose to try and slove the puzzles that have been left behind by this mysterious lost civilization. The first level is fairly easy, solvable within about 35-45 minutes, but then you start paying attention to the writings on the wall… Several hours later, your brain aching from the mental exercise, you hear the announcement that the museum is closing and you find yourself desperately looking for an opening in your calendar so that you can come back for more.

Seriously, though, if you are looking for a nerdfightastic way to spend a day (or five), this is the place to be!

Ohio is called the buckeye state.

What’s a buckeye, you say?

It is the nut of one of several tree species of the genus AesculusA delicious treat made of sugar, peanut butter and chocolate. What is not to love?

We all know that John has an affinity for taking road trips and finding the largest things. along the way, like the largest ball of twine. Well in Ohio we have large things too!

Namely large baskety things!

Ohio. We create astronauts.

No. Really. Look at all these astronauts!

Ohio: we appreciate the finer things in life. Like space.

So I still haven’t gotten any submissions for this blog, but I figured I’d go ahead and make a post or seven on why I think that John and Hank should come to Ohio. So I came up with seven reasons why John and Hank should come to Ohio.

I’ll be fleshing out those reasons in posts. Later. After I go to the library and church.
