TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NEW MEXICO changed its name from Hot Springs to Truth or Consequences as the result of a radio show contest. In March 1950, Ralph Edwards, the host of the popular NBC Radio quiz show Truth or Consequences, announced that he would air the program on its 10th anniversary from the first town that renamed itself after the show; Hot Springs officially changed its name on March 31, 1950, and the program was broadcast from there the following evening. Edwards visited the town during the first weekend of May for the next 50 years. This event became known as Fiesta and eventually included a beauty contest, a parade, and a stage show. The city still celebrates Fiesta each year during the first weekend of May. The parade generally features local dignitaries, last year's Miss Fiesta pageant queen, and the winner of Hatch Chile Queen pageant. Fiesta also features a dance in Ralph Edwards Park.

That was the one I was going to post! I have actually been there with a friend who's a huge fan of The X-Files. It is in the outskirts of Ottawa.

In Southern Ontario, Canada:
There is a place called Punkeydoodles Corners, which is just west of Kitchener.
In Cambridge, there is a trail called Swastika Trail.
Further north (Barrie? Orillia?), I'm thinking there was a street name Swastika. There was a news article awhile back - saying it was going to vote to have the street name changed.

I had read about the Mulder x Scully corner on social media. One day when I went to Ottawa with my friend for a day trip from Montreal, I remembered it and made a point of stopping there for a photo.
