Useless (I means seriously useless) facts about Arizona:
- Arizona leads the nation in copper production; in fact, it outpaces the copper production of the rest of the U.S. combined. The amount of copper on the roof of the capital building is the equivalent of 4,800,000 pennies.
- Arizona has an official state fossil. It’s petrified wood.
- The bola tie is the official state neckwear. Officially.
- Arizona observes Mountain Standard Time all year round. The one exception is the Navajo Nation in the northeast corner of the state, which observes the change to Mountain Daylight Savings Time.
