Below are a few of our favorites they shared in the comments. Have you even traveled down these roads in Alabama? The street signs will make you do a double-take.
Butter and Egg Road in Troy
Indeed, this road does exist. Stay on it and you’ll find Butter & Egg Adventures, a 48-acre retreat center and aerial adventure facility surrounded by beautiful Alabama country in Troy.
Egg and Butter Road in Columbiana
Sure enough, you can swap the words and find another road to match it. Whether or not you find actual eggs or butter on the road remains to be seen. But you’ll likely pass a grocery store or two driving through Shelby County.
Cuss Fork Road in Wilmer
Watch your mouth driving along this road in Mobile County, in either direction.
This Ain’t It Road in Dadeville
You may this it to be true, but the road quickly reminds you This Ain’t It while wandering through Tallapoosa County.
Spooky Hollow Road in Alexander City
There’s nothing spooky about the gorgeous backdrops provided by Lake Martin in this area, but I’m sure folks have got some stories for the campfire.
Buttermilk Road in Cottondale
Frankly we’d be a little disappointed if there wasn’t a road in Alabama named after buttermilk. You’ll find this one on the way in or out of Tuscaloosa on I-59 as you pass through Cottondale.
Booger Hollow Road in Dadeville
It’s only hollow when the boogers are out, right? Are we talking nostrils or roads here?
Microwave Road in Coker
In a rush? Zap your trip but mind the speed limit while on this Tuscaloosa County road.
Fleahop Road in Eclectic
Leave your dogs and cats at home before driving through Elmore County. These road names are beginning to bug us.
Slick Lizzard Road in Nauvoo
You may find a lizard or two hiking through Camp McDowell. Their slickness may vary.
Lick Skillet Road in Ashville
Don’t pretend you haven’t licked a skillet at some point in your Southern life. Just let it cool down first, or we’ll search the rest of St. Clair County for a Burn Unit Road.
Ketchemedoggie Road in Lineville
If you see my doggie on this road, will you be sure and ketch it?
