When you got there, right in the middle of the road there was a front fork from a Cushman motor scooter. (It was a small dirt road on the fairgrounds with only scooter traffic.)

How about Tennis Ct. and Bowling Alley?

Sometimes real streets have funny names. In Hazard, Ky., there is a street that is 16 feet wide from curb to curb. They named it Broardway.
Right here in this county, we have Sugar Limb Road, Buttermilk Road, Strange Road, Old Stage Road, Muddy Creek Road, Alcohol Road and Virtue Road. The streets and avenues in town have names like A Street and First Avenue. Some people don't have a sense of humor.
