Default Why does everyone look down on PA?

I keep hearing people refer to PA as land of the "dink deer". I'll admit they may not be as big as the ones from IL but it might be because PA has one of the biggest deer herds and not enough food for all the deer. This year i harvested a 2 1/2 year old buck that scored 124" and had a perfect 8pt rack. I've seen bucks here in PA that would easily score well over 150". My grandpa has harvested bucks that weigh over 200 lbs field dressed. Im just wonder why the deer are called "dinks".
