Great list! You've found a bunch. How about Gas, Kansas?

There are 3 to 4 million websites that deal with strange town names if you want to grab some more.

The Pee Pee gas sign is from Waverly,Ohio. on Route 23.(named after the township of Pee Pee which derived it's name from nearby Pee Pee creek))The gas station has since changed ownership.hence all the items listed for sale at the bottom of the sign.You took the pic just in time because it's since been removed.Visited the town often since I was a kid in the 60's, my grandparents lived there.My aunt knows the guy would made the sign and he now has it.trying to make a deal to get it...LOL
