Don't put Disney and Key West in "The South" category, because they're not. Florida is not "The South". Memphis and Atlanta type of cities are nothing like Miami, Key West, Ft.

Thats like saying southern california is south-western.

THANK YOU!
For those of you who argue that FL is Southern - go live somewhere else in the South for a while, like NC or GA or AL, and then tell me what you think. I will concede that there are parts of FL that are Southern-like (such as the area outside of Gville as ZTAngel mentioned, and St. Auggie, and down 321 through Ocala, and of course, the redneck riviera, er, the panhandle
), but they are not Southern the way Charleston, Savannah, ATL, etc. are.
For college, I went North, but actually went further South. They sure do love to ridicule me for being from FL. My favorite FL joke is being told that my home state needs to break off and float back up to New York where it belongs.
ETA: IowaStatePhiPsi - I haven't heard of that restaurant either. Do you have a link or remember where it was located?
