That ’s certainly a sheer program line .

The great state of Connecticut has updated their road signs!

Governor Ned Lamont shared the signs on X:

There’s this one that calls Connecticut the “Foodie Capital of New England”:

There’s another one that calls it the “Basketball Capital of the World”:

There’s this one that says it’s the “Home of the Submarine Capital of the World”:

But the one that is causing the greatest stir is this one:

Yeah, the “Pizza Capital of the United States.”

People had a lot to say about that one!
