Podunk, Please

The town of Podunk Indian Trail, North Carolina (my own little town, although the mail says Matthews, NC) wants to be noticed by the North Carolina Department of Transportation:

Some Indian Trail leaders say it’s time their town gets some representation on Interstate 485.

Past attempts have failed to convince the N.C. Department of Transportation to install signs along the outerbelt informing drivers about Indian Trail.

Now, town leaders say, Indian Trail has grown and is a sign-worthy destination.

“We just have a lot going on, and we want to be represented on 485,” said Indian Trail council member Chris King, who also represents the town on the Mecklenburg-Union Metropolitan Planning Organization.

Hell, most Americans aren't even familiar with Charlotte, the major city just north of here, and confuse it with cities in South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia.
