My home state of Maine is somewhat considered "Lobster capital of the world."

In the Maine Summertime (aka "tourist & mosquito" season) a group of 
Lobsters is called a good "suppah" and usually priced out of the native's 
budget unless they happen to be or know one of the actual vanishing breed 
of lobsterfishermen.

(More technically, many inland Mainers also refer to a group of lobsters as 
a "mess'a" ....as in "That, theya is a whole mess'a lobstahs, my friend.")
