Posted by: ElusiveDream

Subject: Weird U.S Town Names
Date: Jul 27 12

I live in Australia but I've noticed that a lot of U.S towns have very strange names. Here are 18 of them.

Tightwad, Missouri
Dinosaur, Colorado
Biggers, Arkansas
Cokeville, Wyoming
Aimwell, Alabama
Looneyville, Texas
Rice, California
Wanderoos, Wisconsin
Winkleman, Arizona
Colon, Nebraska
Alligator, Mississippi
Kermit, Virginia
Frogville, Oklahoma
Bucksnort, Tennessee
Gayhead, New York
Monkey's Eyebrow, Kentucky
Eureka, Oregon
Happy's Inn, Montana
Pringle, South Dakota
Enigma, Georgia
Roachtown, Illinois
Bivalve, New Jersey
Peach Bottom, Pennsylvania
Elephant Butte, New Mexico
Sopchoppy, Florida

Are you American? Do you live in a town with a strange name?

Completing my state-by-state list: Utah has Mexican Hat, Virgin, and Dutch John; Vermont has Bread Loaf and Killington; Virginia has Drill Swords, Mouth of Wilson, Fancy Gap, Bland, Modest Town, and Hurt; Washington has Humptulips and Wala Walla; West Virginia has Smoke Hole, Shock, Cabins, Left Hand, Odd, Mud, and Lost City; Wisconsin has New Diggings, Fence, and Hustler; and finally Wyoming has Lost Cabin, Recluse, and my overall favourite, Dull Center.
