You Can No Longer Steal The Sign In Shitterton
Tue, Jul 27, 2010
Without a doubt the most famous place on our list of 69 Towns And Cities With Funny Dirty Names is Fucking, Austria.
Apparently it took a long time for the residents of Fucking to realize that their town name was hilarious because every time the town sign was stolen, they would install a new one… and it would be gone within a week.
Eventually the Fucking townspeople wised up and cemented the sign to the pole so it couldn’t be stolen.
Well, another town with a funny name in Europe was suffering the same dilemma until recently: Shitterton.
The people of Shitterton, England were getting so fed up with the town sign being stolen that they decided to carve the name of the town into a massive stone.
Here’s how the chairman of the parish council came to the conclusion: “We thought, “Let’s put in a ton and a half stone and see them try and take that away in the back of a Ford Fiesta’.” Because apparently thieves only drive Ford Fiestas? That’s an impractical storage vehicle and getaway car. What’s the top speed, like 35? Besides, the Shitterton sign was probably bigger than that entire car.
Racing stripes won't make that POS go any faster or look any cooler.
Now, I don’t have a bucket list, but if I did, one of my life goals would be to steal the sign of a town with a sexual name.
Have you, or would you ever, jack a town sign and install it in your man cave?

That’s one unfortunate name for a town.
It’s also an unfortunate situation for anyone who has eaten Mexican food.
Hahaha, this is great. I may steal a few of these fo sho but I will link back to YOU for the credit!
Stealing stories is way easier than stealing the Shitterton sign. Though, if you did accomplish that feat, I’d be really impressed. As long as you don’t drive a Ford Fiesta, you might be able to pull it off… with the assistance of like a hundred of your closest friends.
