Our school children ALSO ensured that we have the most metal state insect, the Tarantula Hawk Wasp.
New Mexico is the only state to have a “state smell”
A bunch of grade school kids said that roasting green chile should be our state smell so their teacher had them write our state Congress and in a shocking display they all came together, wrote the bill, and passed it in a matter of weeks
