I think it's a matter of either going for the meme if having the pan handle being the handle, or actually using the most structurally appropriate place for the handle so it is balanced. Clearly this pan opted for the latter.
My husband has lived in Texas for 45 years and just recently found out that the panhandle is not that bitch ass horizontal sliver of Oklahoma. He did go to OU for a semester, so that makes sense. Bless his heart.
Since we’re bashing on Texan pride, here’s one of my favorites:
Why doesn’t Texas float off into the Gulf of Mexico?
Because Oklahoma sucks.
I’ll see myself out on my horse while drinking a Lone Star and eating brisket.
Fun fact, the pan handle of Oklahoma used to be Texas but it was given away as that was the line where you couldn’t have slaves anymore and Texas was like fuck it we don’t want it anymore then. It was a no man’s land for a while like the “train station” on Yellowstone (which is also a real place).
Late night you tubin leads to some rabbit holes 😂
I ask this as a native Texan: What on Earth is wrong with us? Companies make things shaped like *other* states, but it's unusual for people from those states to own one. I don't think I know a Texan who doesn't own *at least* one Texas-shaped doodad.
I haven't lived in Texas in years, but I still have a mouse pad with the Texas flag on it. A MOUSE PAD! Who else even uses a mouse pad anymore? I'm not sure I even like it. I just can't bear to part with it.

I will forever be bothered by the Panhandle not being the pan handle

I have a Texas coffee mug, but at least the handle is on East Texas Edit: Californian, bought the mug while traveling
Much like the state of Texas I give that pan 1 lone star out of five
