They have diamond mines in Arkansas. That's the only state in the US that has diamonds. Some guy found a four-carat yellow diamond a little while back; four carats is a BOULDER in diamond standards by the way. There's also the University of Arkansas, with its football team, the Razorbacks. In case you were wondering, a "razorback" is a vicious feral hog. Bloo would probably go crazy looking for diamonds, determined to get rich, but you know he wouldn't know a diamond from a piece of broken glass, and if he found one, he'd probably chuck it away thinking it was just some old rock.
Arizona is interesting-lots of cacti, neat reptiles and TARANTULAS! And SCORPIONS!
Not a good place to be if you happen to be a huge shaggy, purple Imaginary Friend-monster dude with big horns and a Latino accent, though.
