My three right off my head favorites are both in AR. Booger Hollow bosted a sign I saw with my own eyes on my honeymoon back in 1980 that says, "Welcome to Booger Hollow. Population 7, countin' one coon dog."
The other we drove through a couple times this past week - Fifty Six, AR. I wondered about the history of how they were named and will do a google search today. If I find anything interesting, I'll let you know.
The first time I went to visit Arkie Ron and his son, I took a wrong turn and wound up in Flippin, AR. I thought I might have to move there so I can say I live in Flippin, AR!
Awww, shucks, MStar, I hope that someone keeps making maps of these little known gems. Maybe one that only has these kinds of places on their maps.
I love driving home from Orlando to Starville. My CD collection is strategically designed to enhance the drive as I drive through China Grove, AL (Doobies!)
I also love driving through Gotha and Gordo.
Of course, I'm partial to Mississippi and have quite a few favorites in just Mississippi alone...
My Favorite Mississippi Cities:
Shuqualak (pronounced Sugar-lock)
Yazoo City (Home of Jerry Clower - Knock 'em out John!)
Eupora (pronounced You-Pour-ah - my favorite dj used to say, "Eupora, I'll drinkah")
Possum Trot
Possumneck
Waxhaw
Hot Coffee
Itta Bena
Noxapater (but you have to say it with a strong southern drawl to really appreciate it. Kind of hard NOT to say it with a southern drawl, isn't it?)
