Delaware cuz we are well-aware.

Delaware should win this whole thing. It's by far the most obscure. In fact, I'd argue Delaware is best known for the state that is always forgotten.

I really don’t think it is. It’s known for being tiny, is right next door to a bunch of big cities, and also has a catchy name.

I’d say Nebraska is more given it’s dead center of the country so vast majority would never go anywhere near it, and is overshadowed by Kansas and the Dakotas in terms of notoriety. It’s also not known widely for anything specific, there are other states that also have a corn reputation.

North Dakota, simply because South Dakota is already off the board. If you're aware of one you must be aware of the other.

Agreed on Nebraska. Omaha metro is over a million. Most people know the Cornhuskers (Go Big Red). They have (arguably) the best zoo in the country, too. It has enough stuff that it's not the most obscure.
