Cornhusker
Resident of Nebraska
Cornhusker refers to a person who removes the husks from ears of corn, a task once done by hand before mechanization.
The term is most familiar as a nickname for someone from Nebraska, the Cornhusker State, where corn production dominates agriculture.
The University of Nebraska's athletic teams are called the Cornhuskers, often shortened to Huskers.
The Cornhuskers are playing at home this Saturday.
