So near where I grew up in western Massachusnuts is a city named Chicopee that has a large Polish population.
The story goes that when Poles were coming over they were looking to go to Chicago, saw the first 4 letters and went to Chicopee instead.
No official people will say that, but every Pole I know from there acknowledges it as true.
