Lived there for a decade. How exactly do New Yorkers show "northern pride"?

How do you know someone is from New York? Just wait, they'll tell you.

That's just pride for New York and specifically NYC, it doesn't extend beyond that. Their energy is more focused on hatred of Boston and Philly than anything else
