STL is like an island of northeasterners in the Midwest. They are different. They have a unique accept that no one else in Missouri or the Midwest has. They're like a shutoff enclave.
I've always said the exact same thing, but STL folk get pissy about it. Just look at the "soda" map. It's pop, coke, and then a big bubble of "soda" centered on STL. You only see soda in the northeast besides STL. The culture in St. Louis is much more northeastern too than it is Midwestern.

When I visit family there I am always aware of how many B1G folks live and work in STL. Not sure if this is the answer but I am guessing it may at least play a part.
