Big Beaver Rd.  :banana:
Lol that's nothing...

Not making this up at all, you can map quest it or whatever...

But I live in Pennsylvania, specifically, Big Beaver Boro. I went to Big Beaver Falls Area school district which was in beaver county ( Joe Namath went there too). The middle school, high school and one of two elementry schools is located in Beaver Falls, pa. On of our rivals was the Beaver bobcats, who where from... You guessed it, Beaver Pa.

To the west of Beaver was... you guessed it, Western Beaver.
There is also South Beaver, North Beaver, New Beaver, Beaver Creek and Little Beaver Township all within 15mins from my house or so.

All of this Beaver makes up the Beaver Valley area in Beaver county (except for Beaver Creek which is in Ohio).

On the way to Lancaster, PA from here, you will pass through Gap, Blue Ball, and Intercourse, Pennsylvania. 

In that order.

Bird-In-Hand

But I think the funniest one, while traveling down Rte 7 in Conn, you go through Gaylordsville. The funny part is there is a side Road, Hard Rod Road. I had to turn around and see if I was imagining that one.

If you live in Webster Mass, can you pronounce the lakes name for me???? Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggch aubunagungamaugg ....It is a real lake ...

+1    what's even funnier, is that I-75 makes a 90o left turn just before Big Beaver Rd at exit 67 and then turns back up to cross Big Beaver for exit 69.  Without that huge turn in the road it would only have exit 67...   :O    :noid
