It can be really amusing to discover some of the stranger names of cities across the U.S., but what about street names? There are some very funny and odd street names out there, and one could say that's even more the case with street names than cities, because there are more street names out there and usually a less strict naming process.
There's a lot in a street name, too. Countless people have decided to buy or not buy a home or property on a certain street because of its name. Now, a new report out names the funniest street name in every state in the U.S., and it's a fascinating find.
Funniest Street Name in the State
The crew at Reader's Digest has put together an entertaining tally of the funniest street names in the country. In the piece, they note that "Yes, people were given the opportunity to name a street, and this is what they chose" and that these are "by no means the only funny street names out there," because every city and state in the county is filled with amusing street names.
Before we get to the state, let's look at a street name that is truly hilarious and unbelievable. "Booger Hollow Road" is a street located in the town of Dadeville, Alabama. Can you imagine a road with the word "booger" in it? Kids likely have a huge laugh about this in elementary schools in Dadeville. According to Reader's Digest, "Booger Hollow is one of the more common silly road names" and that there's another one about "60 miles northeast of Montgomery, there are also Booger Hollow Roads in Kentucky and Georgia."
So, let's get to Georgia and the state's strangest street name. Reader's Digest picks the weirdest street name to be Five Forks Trickum Road, which is in Mountain Park and about two hours and some change west of Augusta, near Atlanta.
"Visitors to Gwinett County may think they’re counting wrong, because there are currently only four forks on this road," Reader's Digest states, adding that it "was actually a five-fork intersection until the road was reconfigured." So, that's how they got the name. It's a funny one, but Reader's Digest also points out that there's a street called Booger Hollow Road that also has a funny moniker. That road is almost four hours from Augusta, northwest of Atlanta.
