You can run into a dozen sub cultures around the USA as well as bumping into ultra friendly or unfriendly people, depending on where you are.

Oh yes, of course. I can't say I've got much experience traveling around those other parts of the US (although I'd love to, good or bad)!
I've only ever experienced the South...

I think that as a foreigner it's harder to tell because you might get treated differently, and the japanese might have a different attitude towards you? So they might show their "patriotism" even more or less depending on the views of the particular person. Japanese are very good in Tech and Car industry as we all know :)
