Life in Montana is not without its oddities. Most of the time, the Treasure State is just like any other place on the planet… except when it isn’t. How many of these things have happened to you?
- You have spent your Saturday night partying by a bonfire in the woods.

- You have either hit a deer or come close to it.

- A bird has flown into your windshield while you were driving.
Brittany / Flickr If you haven’t had this terrifying experience, you’re very lucky indeed.
- You have traveled out of state, waved to a stranger and gotten a strange look in return.
tgraham / Flickr Wait, not everybody waves to each other?!?
- You have attended a festival that revolves around bull testicles.
Aquistbe / Flickr OK, so not everyone has attended the Testy Fest in Clinton. But those who have can agree it’s not a normal experience.
- You have seen snow falling on days when it really shouldn’t have been snowing.
Craig Dugas / Flickr Mid-June snow flurries? Yes, that happens here.
- You have endured a Montana “traffic jam.”

- You have stopped for gas or a snack and played a slot machine.
Brood_wich / Flickr At the very least, you’ve thought about it.
- You have been asked some seriously silly questions.

Weird or not, Montana is the best. Here are a few more quirky things we do.
