...a guy was driving along in south(way south) Mississippi and kept seeing signs telling how many miles to tchoutacabouffa. when he finally got there, he went in to the first establishment he could find, walked up to the counter and asked the girl "how in the hell do you pronounce the name of this place"????.....she leaned over the counter and said...very slowly......"B..U...R...G...E...R.......K...I....N..G"!!!........... ::facepalm:: ...................

Tommy, at first I thought this was another of Mr. B's threads, then I thought you went crazy on the keyboard and made up that name, sooooo I Googled it.

"The word, the French spelling of an Indian name, is pronounced "CHOO-tah-kah-BUH-fuh", or locally as "CHOO-tah-kah-buff".
The Tchoutacabouffa river is in southern Mississippi and flows through part of Biloxi."
