According to a new study by WalletHub we’re a big ol’ stick in the mud.

The study looked at what states are most and least fun, comparing all 50 states across two main categories – “Entertainment & Recreation” and “Nightlife.”

I guess New England could use more “Entertainment & Recreation” and “Nightlife” because we eat up 4 of the 10 least fun states (we occupy #39 too!).

Here are the results – Most fun up top (not us), Least fun down bottom (us). Also – I’m thinking of starting up a no-fun club where we’ll sit around and be miserable since that seems to be our M.O. If you’d like to sign up, holler!
