Nickname: The Hoosier State (I've lived here five years and still don't understand what a Hoosier is...)
State Song: 'On the Banks of the Wabash, Far Away', by Paul Dresser
State Flower: Peony (one of my faves!)
State Bird: Cardinal (hmmmm, the same as Kentucky)
State Stone: Limestone (yes, we have a 'state stone' - it's been used in the construction of the Empire State Building and the Pentagon)
For the record, I still find it amusing that I live in New Albany , and yet, I live closer to downtown Louisville than my parents do, who actually live in Louisville.
