29.67% of everywhere
I was listening to the song "I've Been Everywhere" the other day and I determined I would try to figure out what percentage of "everywhere" I've been. Twenty-seven out of ninety-one is 29.67%. Of course, it appears that "everywhere" is generally in North America. Have the rest of you been to much of everywhere?

What criteria did you use to pull your sample list on here?
The list itself is from the link. It may not be completely accurate to the song, but I think it is close.
If I have been to a town, county, or state with the name listed, I count it as being there. For example, I have never been to the largest Springfield (MA), but I have been to at least two others (MO and IL), I say I've been there.
Smaller things like park or street names don't count, so just because I may have driven down an Argentina Blvd doesn't mean that I can say I've been to Argentina.
Also, as an addendum, someone pointed out to me that there is a Ottawa on the road from KC to Witchita, so I guess I've been to one of those as well.
I have been to 13 places on the list.
We have been on a Johnny Cash kick lately. : )
That is cool! I read this at work and didn't have time to click over to the link!
When we took our first vacation from Alaska...we were gone for 6 weeks. Later, we told our friends that we went to Paris....because we did! Paris, Arkansas =D
0.241758242
I bet if I got my atlas out I could come up with more then that, but off the top of my head...I've made it to almost 25% of everywhere!

i'd have to look at a map and remember all those old road trips we took when I was little. A lot of those cities are little towns with a good county western bar or something.
Augh... I just realized that I've been to Dayton as well. I was thinking it said "Daytona."
32.61% .. and my waterloo was in Nebraska.
I've been to 43.9% of everywhere...
No South Dakota on the list. I'm truly from the middle of nowhere!
We go to Paris OK or Texas, it's on the border. Does that count?
Yep, it counts. :)
