Chances are, you may have heard of Scotty and Fiddy. They’re two guys who have taken on the task of hitchhiking to every US state capital in 50 days or less, chronicling the journey via their website Hitch50.com.
Their reasons for the project are simple: Scotty and Fiddy just finished business degrees at Royal Roads University Commerce program, and the reality of collared-shirts, paperwork, and long hours at the office wasn’t as appealing as thumbing rides across the country.
So they gathered T-shirts emblazoned with their names, cut out their first cardboard sign, and set off from the glittering heart of American commerce itself: Times Square in New York City.
