The joke, explained
"Seattle, The Sunshine State" is a funny quote coffee mug built on a nickname that fits Florida and not Seattle. What does "Seattle, The Sunshine State" mean? Seattle has a well-earned reputation for frequent rain, so calling it the Sunshine State is the deadpan of someone with a gray sky and a coffee. Locals say it with a straight face while the forecast says drizzle, flat and sure like the best funny saying coffee mugs. It works as a funny travel coffee mug for a rainy road trip, or as a quote gag gift for the friend who still packs sunglasses.
