NBC Nightly News this week celebrated New Hampshire after it accidentally left the state out of a graphic in a July 9 broadcast.

"This calls for a reminder of great things about New Hampshire," said host Brian Williams, who went on to highlight the Granite State's "Live Free or Die" motto presidential primary, and all female delegation, among other assets

He also mentions Sarah Silverman and Seth Meyers as byproducts of the Granite State, as well as the inventor of Tupperware, and as the birthplace of paper towels –  completely leaving out Adam Sandler, perhaps our most notorious marketable export.
