They're trying to impress Dave Barry so he'll write a column about it.

Disneyland's in California, Walt Disney World is in Florida. And it's a known fact that Disney World is the state's sanctuary for survivors, trying to escape the Hurricanes when they go out on their nightly raids. There's a Hurricane Corps.? Like the Green Lantern Corps? And where does Shane Helms rank in this group No, I mean the Miami Hurricanes. They have like this Mad Max-thing going for them when they're not at games or at practice- they ride around in these monster vehicles terrorizing people, and Sebastian the Ibis is their boss.

It's all the retired people. They move there, use their Bengay, the fumes drift into the atmosphere and permeate across the state, making people get naked and chew on cat toys and sugh.

Didn't most of the "Dammit Florida" meme start after the bath salts/zombie scare from a while ago?
Say what you want about sordid crime, but any place where a guy gets caught eating somebody's face is going down in history, no matter what. Stabbings, shootings, beatings...those are accepted as things that just happen. But eating somebody's FACE? That's straight out of a comic book!

Fun fact: the original vision for EPCOT was a full-functioning "progress city" run solely by Disney.......but it also would've also housed a concentration camp for idiots collected from all parts of the country.
Walt started shipping the morons in as they were first working on the Disney resort, but then up and died of cancer in 1966, before the resort was open and EPCOT was ever approved.
His successors, realizing their were uncharismatic schmucks who lacked the persuasive talents to actually sell this controversial idea to the state of Florida, thus dropped those EPCOT plans. Then they just let the dummies loose and they assimilated into the Florida culture and slowly changed the populace to match their nimrodic ways.
I may've just made this up, or I might be using knowledge learned thru my ex-gf who worked/works for Disney World.
Another fun fact: Disney's head is not cryogenically frozen and hidden in a vault under the park. But Clarence Nash's is. And someday soon, Donald Duck will sound right again......

On the Cracked podcast a few months ago they were talking about this. Apparently crime in Florida on average is lower than a lot of other states, including Delaware. The main reason why a lot of these "crazy Florida" stories pop up is because Florida have looser laws in regards to letting media outlets know about crime. So "people getting their dicks caught in lawnmowers" or "people inhaling human feces while robbing 'Bed, Bath and Beyond'" most likely happens in every state, it's just that the laws in Florida allow everyone to know about your drunken antics. that's what I came in to post. has to suck for Florida when you think about it.

I've been to Florida 4 times and never run into any issues. I've been to New Jersey once and immediately wanted to live on another planet.

That and a lot of nations major tabloid companies are located in Florida, so naturally most of the weird stories will end up being about the State their located in.

Every state has their stereotypes. At least Florida has an interesting one. Or would you rather be Iowa where everybody immediately goes "LOL HICK FARMER" or Washington where it's "lol hippies" or Alaska were everybody is an Eskimo or some sort of sentient Polar Bear.
