There are a lot of things we all know about New Jersey, but every once in a while something pops up that we may have never heard about the Garden State.

So, we figured it was time to give you another 3 things you might not know about the Garden State, and this time it's according to Mental Floss...

Swamp Dragons. When the Nets were a New Jersey basketball team, there was apparently some conversations about changing the team name to Swamp Dragons.

Rocket Mail. An experiment was done in 1936 that successfully delivered mail from New Jersey to Manhattan with a rocket.

Presidential birth. Only one president was actually born in New Jersey, and it was Grover Cleveland, who was born in Caldwell.

Now you are ready for your next party, date or visit to your favorite game show. This is most likely proof that in a state where we all think we know everything, that every once in a while we might just be surprised by something. Maybe.
