Don't know of another state where people are as universally proud of where they are from as Texans are. in many states people would be hard pressed to describe their state flag - not in Texas though. When the American flag is flown in Texas, almost always the Texas flag is right next to it. Until post Sept. 11th, it was easier to find a Texas flag in the store than an American flag - not for lack of American flags, but for the popularity of Texans flying the Texas flag everywhere.
