Louisiana Has More Drunks Than Anywhere in the Country, and More Things We Think About States

After publishing a poll asking Europeans which countries were the hottest, drunkest, and most likeable, Buisness Insider took the grown-up class superlatives stateside today, asking 1603 of its readers over a dozen questions about their fellow Americans.

Finally, the Rajun' Cajuns get astoundingly high marks in the “Which state is the drunkest?” contest, which does make sense after factoring in both Mardi Gras and New Orleans' neighbors across the border: Both Alabama and Mississippi were named among the ugliest states in the country.
