One of my customers moved to AZ from Wisconsin about 10 years ago. I moved here from Chicago about 40 years ago.

They introduced me to new terminology, FIBS. I don't ever remember hearing that term when I lived in Chicago. We went up to Wisconsin a lot, especially for the Can Am races at Elkhart Lake.

It's a derogatory term that Wisconsinites have for the people from Illinois who come up to Wisconsin for the weekends and clog the roadways and hunt each other during hunting season

F..ing Illinois Ba...s

Out west we're never that mean. We call our winter visitors snowbirds. People around San Diego used to call Arizonans "zonies"

And, welcome Richard, to the Pit.

That term takes me back a long way to place far away! Don't hear that used much anymore...you may have just dated yourself!

Every one of us that understood the term immediately without having to think about it has just dated ourselves ... and in the process, outed ourselves as former military. And BTW, welcome to the Pit, Richard!
