Okay, so I came up with this as a byproduct of a failed attempt at another puzzle...

Fill in the next two numbers:

111

2024

31

1320

1413

126

1422

315

1518

2325

This requires some outside knowledge...you may have to look some information up (not related to math/numbers), but after getting the first few numbers, it should be pretty obvious what the pattern is and what you need to know/find out

Good luck!

Each number can be divided into 2 numbers, between 1-26, which corresponds to the sequential letter in the alphabet.

Each pair of letter is a state abbreviation, starting with AK (alaska). Basically, it is a list of the ten largest states (by area). The next two in the sequence are the 11th and 12th largest state.

Hence the state pun.
