Cowpens, SC

We need to make a thread called "Funny Nick Names for a City" because the city I live in has a nickname called G-vegas and it's very rural (well not that rural the population is 80k)!!! LOL

I always thought Walla Walla was fake as a kid. I was surprised when I found out that place actually existed.

I once tried to write to Eek, Alaska but received no reply.

In other odd names there's Wink, Texas and Boring, Oregon. Although I can't find Boring, Oregon on this site.
