UG! As a Californian serving in the USAF stationed near Niceville (Eglin AFB) I was amazed to hear two red-necky guys talking about skydiving ‘this weekend’ in “L.A.”.

I was amazed. You guys are going all the way to L.A. to skydive?

That is when I found out that they called the “panhandle” of Florida “Lower Alabama”, and then abbreviated it to “L.A.”.

I said “Sorry boys, that name is TAKEN!”

They must have been from Crestview.
