We’ve all heard the jokes about Ball State University and Beaver College. Sheesh, are we adolescents who snicker at those types of jokes???
To: Nachum
You should hear the local radio reporting this. LOL

Once knew a urologist named “Ball”. Good man.
Then there’s that Asian guy working at Home Depot, sporting the name tag that reads “Hi, I’m Hung.” No joke.

I love it when an elitist liberal has to do a piece about flyover county:
Fort Wayne, about 120 miles northeast of Indianapolis
The Fort Wayne metro area has a population of over a quarter of a million, yet the AP reporter(ette) felt compelled to tell his(her) readers how to find it. :)

Of course we are.
Two nights ago on Top Gear the Brits made fun of the welcome sign to “Intercourse, Pennsylvania.”
It’s human nature. No way Fort Wayne is going to let you buy some Schwetty Balls at the Harry Baals Center.

Now that's funny.
I lived in Ft. Wayne during some of my, errr, formative years, and know of this Harry Baals - even know Harry Baals Avenue.

I think that more govt buildings need to be dedicated to “BAALs”. Oh wait, aren’t they already?

Scratch 'Harry Baals'... Headlines by Beavis and Butthead. And I thought the 'Beaver' thread was bad...

City spokesman Frank Suarez said the city has no regrets about opening the name selection up to people online."It is a new way of reaching out to the community,"
And telling them to get stuffed.

When I lived in Michigan the Lieutenant Governor was named Dick Posthumous. Always thought that was the worst name I’d ever heard, but this thread may top it.
