I think you are trying to say.... "San AWN-TO" In other words the "AN" has the sound of the AWN in Goldie >HAWN'S < last name.

Yea some Latinos will say that! I hear that a lot and it's very MUCH a part of the SA local vernacular.

Really enjoyed the video. San Antone really works in a song, but I hate hearing San Antonio referred by that moniker any other way. JMO
