Watch: Simply, 'Missouri Is Awesome'

Missouri is awesome. That's it. 

It's the premise behind a new effort to launch a clothing line representing the Show-Me state's excellence. 

The Springfield, Mo. folks behind the effort have also put out a video highlighting some of what they say makes Missouri awesome - which is what really got our attention.

Do you agree with their selections? What would you add or subtract? Do you think Missouri is, indeed, awesome?

(Please note: the video contains material some may find offensive)

(H/T to the folks over at Reddit's /r/StLouis for bringing it to our attention)
