One of the nicknames for your state is the groundhog state.

'Groundhog State' is a nickname for Mississippi?!?
No, Ernie, that's 'The Magnolia State'; spelled and pronounced quite differently from groundhog.

Growing up in east-central Alabama, I never saw a groundhog until I was in college - and never saw more than one until I graduated from vet school and moved to Tennessee.
