This reminds me of my favourite (possibly apocryphal) overheard bus conversation "after we had the kids we moved from Honey Hole Road to Slack Bottom"

Sorry, but there's a village in Ireland called Muff. And in the summer they have an annual festival. And it is called The Muff Festival. They put a big sign up over the road on the way in Muff Festival July blah blah to July Blah blah.
They win.
Yes, they do have a diving club since you ask... yes they have named it the Muff Diving Club.
No, they don't see why that's funny.
