Does every state have a town named Springfield? Seems like it. I'm very familiar with the one in Oregon. I think Ohio, Illinois, maybe Massachusetts.

Huh. US Board of Geographic Names claims 34 states have one.

That's why the Simpsons took place in Springfield. When they made the movie, they had a contest among all the Springfields to see which one would host the premiere. My nephew was at the premier in Springfield, VT.

When I saw the title of the thread, the first thing that went through my head was Toonces the Driving Cat from SNL years ago.
