That my Dad plugged in his electric shaver and the trolley stopped.

The leader of the Ku Klux Klan was a black guy.

The head of the local mafia was Chinese.

The city park was in a flower pot.

The biggest building in town was the city hall, a four hole outhouse. 

Our Civil War relic was a button.

The only traffic light we had was in the next town, sixteen miles away.

They closed down the ppublic library when someone lost the book.

The mayor lived in the basement of city hall.

My hometown was so small that the local paper combined three features into one column.  They combined the births, marriages and deaths into a column they entitled "Hatched, Matched and Detached".

My hometown was so small that when they decided to paint a line down the middle of Main Street, there wasn't enough money in the city funds to widen the street.

My hometown was so small that the sign on the road said "Welcome to"

My home town was so small that:

Our zip code was a fraction!
Our 7-11 was a 3 1/2  5 1/2!
A "night on the town" only took eleven minutes!
The phone book only had one page!

My hometown was so small.....

They drop you from the football team because they don't have a uniform big enough for you.

The local Baskin-Robbins only has three flavors - and one of them is Skoal!

If you want to go out and paint the town red, a single can of spray paint will usually do the trick.

Under the heading of FUTURE CIVIC IMPROVEMENTS they are discussing the purchase of a second horse.

My hometown was so small that the big event for Saturday night was to gather at the general store and watch Josh grind coffee.  the big event for Sunday, after church, was to gather at the local filling station and watch Lem gas up the cars that were passing through.
