It’s definitely a toss up between Kentucky and Tennessee for first.

Georgia

For me, it's a 3-way tie for first: Kentucky, Missouri, and Tennessee.

Missouri's the most distinguished looking of them all...I love it's architecture.

Kentucky's just plain classy all the way.

Tennessee's beautiful, too...a "lawz how mercy, we sho' is rich now!" look!

I believe Georgia's the largest of them all...32 columns surrounding the house all around.


But, I love all of them...Arkansas' and South Carolina's are a bit more muted, but have a quiet elegance about them that I like.

All those rocking chairs and that wrap around porch in Baton Rouge. I can just see the governor hosting some state senators and making them sit outside on a hot July day and not let them inside until they agree to his terms.

Missouri’s looks like it belongs in Europe.

Kentucky’s is badass.

Really wild teen sexcapades, circa early 80s.

...eventually driving his wife to a dwarf's bed.

just like with the capital building, the stories and history behind the building is much more interesting than the architecture

KY wins..European splendor..a palace.

Bama..much the same as aforementioned.

La...very nice southern elegance..a plantation owner that did very well. Wins 1st over Ky if choosing by southern charm.

Ark..ole boy did pretty good with his Tyson and Walmart stock..but meh.

Fla..tell the Tri Delts to come out front for a group pic.

Ga..pretty nice..for state line rest stop!

Miss..that Atty hit a big score vs Big Tobacco.

Mo..Norman Bates is gonna knife your @ss in the shower!

SC..If only Tony Montana had laid off the yayo and not PO'd Alex Sosa..and grown old.

Tenn..nice hotel, let's count all the windows, maybe steal away the Sou Baptist Convention from Opryland..they charge plenty of Johnny Walker Black Label and Porn to the rooms while away from the wives, according to an Acct that used audit for them.

Tx..clean and classic..but not of Texas scale in 2019.

True story...my mother (legendarily well-versed in dinner party etiquette) was asked by the owners of a certain seafood restaurant in our town (30 min from BR) to Hostess a private party for him and his coonass cronies when I was a kid. This was not an unusual request, as she hosted VIPs there occasionally. Our families were somewhat close.

She drove home not 30 mins later, and we never ate there again or visited with the owners.
...it was a legit teen-slut fest. All girls from waaaaaaaaay down the bayou. She could've called the cops, but nothing but misery would've ensued for our family, as he wielded god-like powers in those days.

I like Missouri’s.
I can almost see Gandalf leading the army.
Reminds me of a castle.
Kentucky and Tennessee is also nice.
South Carolina looks like a hideout of a dictator in a third world country. Cuba automatically came to mind. No offense.
Georgia WTF?

His current wife with whom he had a baby must be sick of changing diapers...I'm talking about Edwin's diapers.
