Have you ever drove or walked past a street sign and thought to yourself “WHAT?!” or “WHO CAME UP WITH THAT NAME?!” You’re not alone. Indiana is home to a lot of weird, crazy, funny, and even creepy street names. I’ve spent a while digging through Google Maps and compiled a list of 12 really crazy street names in Indiana!
- Harry Baals Drive
Doublenought via WikiMedia Commons Yes, that is pronounced how you think it is pronounced. Harry Baals Drive is actually named after a former mayor of Fort Wayne.
- Around The Hills Road
Google Maps This street is also in Indianapolis, looking at an earth view on Google Maps… I don’t see any hills around the road. Do you?
- Life Road
Google Maps Life Road is in Peru, Indiana. Who knows what is waiting for you on Life Road?
- Stoner Drive
Google Maps I think this one speaks for itself… I imagine a very relaxed group of individuals live on Stoner Drive (which is located in Anderson, if you’re curious).
- Bourbon Street
Google Maps From what I can tell there are a couple Bourbon Streets in Indiana. Not sure what that says about the Hoosier state…
- Bacon Street
Google Maps Anyone want to live on Bacon Street?! It’s also in Indianapolis.
- Lookout Lane
Google Maps Lookout Lane is located in Bloomington. Everyone is extra paranoid on this street…
- Santa Lane, Rudolph Blvd, Frosty Lane
Google Maps The truth is – I could go on for a while listing fun street names in Santa Claus, Indiana. Are you really that surprised?
- Haag Drive
Google Maps Haag Drive is located in Montgomery. I’m wondering what kind of women live on this street…
- Home Street
Google Maps Home Street is in Huntington. I feel like it could be the start of a really bad (or really funny) joke.
- Shadybrook Drive
Google Maps Could you imagine someone telling you to meet them at Shadybrook Drive? No thank you… This is in Fort Wayne if you’re wondering.
- Antelope Boulevard, Antelope Circle, Antelope Court, Antelope Drive, and Antelope Lane
Google Maps So, these are all clustered in the same part of Indianapolis. All I can say is someone really liked Antelope and wanted to cover all their bases…. What do you think?
