I have made jokes on air many times that if I ever left Atlanta, I would have to steal one of the Beaver Ruin Road signs in Gwinnett County before I left.  I quietly laugh every time Wendy reports on traffic on that road because I think the name is hilarious.

But what if your CITY's name was something to laugh at?  You see above the names of Weiner, Hooker, and Wetwang.  Makes even our hated nickname of "Hotlanta" not sound so bad.

    On our way to my sons graduation from bootcamp in Missouri we came to a streetsign that said we could go straight to Licking or left for Success. Once we passed the sign there was a gas station named the Cum and Go

    I'm originally from Hooker and I think I can add to this sign! Our baseball team is called the Horney Toads so yes....Hooker Horney Toads! And of course the Hooker Chamber of Commerce sales the famous t-shirts that read "Once a Hooker, Always a Hooker!"
