Do you want a highway named after every 4th place Olympic finisher?
Neither does Foster Brooks... look him up.
Prefontaine's roommate Arne Kvalheim told him after the Olympics that he'd have a street named after him called "4th Street."
It would sadly remind people of how he died.
A bad association.
Would sort of be like the JFK Shooting Range.
Or the Buddy Holly or John Denver Airport.
Or the Prefontaine Liquor Store.
Oddly enough, we have a Will Rogers Airport and Wiley Post Airport here in Oklahoma. They died together in a plane crash... Wiley only had one good eye.
Everytime I see "stop pre"
I think...
"that rock did"
They did build a Prefontaine highway.... but it was a dead end.
Really, the worst example of an eponymous street name is Martin Luther King Blvd. Every single MLK Blvd in America is littered with prostitutes, drugs and trash ... KFC boxes, big gulp cups and McDonalds bags everywhere. Some legacy.
Yea, but they were not raging alcholics.
