When I was living in San Antonio last year, a lot of people didn't even know where Utah was. I also dealt with a lot of international tourist down there. To the international tourist, the U.S. to them is New York City, DC, Florida, Chicago, Texas, and California, and just a lot of open space in between.

People in San Antonio can't be that stupid if they can't even point out Utah on a map. Really, I find it hard to believe that in this day and age that even after hosting the 2002 winter Olympics games that people STILL have never heard of Salt Lake.

Yes, there's always that Mormon bias stereotypes that would think that. But I do agree that I think we are about 10-15 years behind most cities. Lack of a CCH would be a perfect example.
