I had never in my life heard that Todd. Who knew I was raised a Sucker.;)

To add to this:

• Michigan residents are Michiganders (alternately, female Michiganders are Michigeese).
• Ohio residents are Buckeyes.
• Massachusetts residents are sometimes called Bay Staters (much easier than Massachusettsians, I suppose).
• Oklahoma residents are sometimes called Sooners.

There's a nice statue of Red Bird at High Cliff State Park on the shores of Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin.
