Good job! I was actually thinking of Williamsburg Virginia but that works too.

Looks like non Americans so far know quite a few of our not so famous cities. Gotta make a harder list.

Non heard of as bolded. But I think everybody should know Waco, TX. That's where the crazy sect leader David Koresh used to preach about Armaggeddon while trippin' on Mescaline. Then the FBI stepped in and it didn't end very well.
