Hammer talked about this very questions a couple Fridays back during his segment with Steve.

Remember Caliente, just across the San Diego border, started the pick six in Mexico many years ago. Then Hollywood brought it to the States. Once the ball started rolling the pick six players stayed with the SoCal circuit.

The handle takeout on the pick 6 also is a factor. Cali is 19.75 most states are higher. NY holds over 25% on carryover days
