I found a lot of things weird, but I did go to Florida like 8 times so it’s to be expected and maybe some of these are exclusive to that state.
I found it weird that alcohol seemed to be sold only in liquor stores. But you can buy a machine gun in Walmart.
The food. Don’t get me wrong it’s nice and all but the quantity. Take sizzlers, you go in order your main meal then get an endless buffet for free. Like I couldn’t eat my steak when it arrived as I was full from the buffet.
syrup all over breakfast items and people bigger than id ever seen were gorging and then taking a box home too.
enthusiasm: grown ass adults whooping and hollering as we were queuing for rides. I’m a man child myself but it was startling.
Jaywalking. Wtf
To throw out some positives. Everyone I met was lovely and nothing like the nut jobs we get to see online. People were polite, friendly and accommodating.
Most grocery stores sell alcohol in Florida, but only the beer and while variety. Hard liquor is only available in liquor stores. FL is actually a lot less restricted on that than many other states.

That might be a Florida thing(?) Definitely not an Ohio thing.

Yeah buffets aren’t all that common… But they’re probably more common here (especially in touristy spots) than other countries.

Fair.

Yeah… Especially in touristy spots and very urban spots some people don’t care. I’m assuming you’ve witnessed Florida man that cuts across 6 lanes of busy traffic.
I think the average American normally only jaywalks if the street is pretty much empty and they don’t feel like waiting 3 minutes for the light to change.
I’m an american who has been to a lot of different american cities. It very much depends on the city for jaywalking. Its hard to predict too. Somewhere like manhattan idk why they even bother putting lights up tbh. But other places if you jaywalk people will look at you like ur crazy.
British.

Beautiful nature and national parks.
