Town of Dinosaur, Colorado

Town · Weird

Originally called Artesia, this Colorado town renamed itself in 1966 to capitalize on its proximity to Dinosaur National Monument. They went all in — streets were renamed to things like Tyrannosaurus Trail, Brontosaurus Boulevard, and Antrodemus Alley. The commitment to the bit is honestly inspiring.
