TBS, stands for Turner broadcasting System, it is owned by Ted Turner, who owned the Altanta Braves for many years. Walla Walla is a city in the state of Washington, and is often citeed because of its funny name.

I'll give it to you.  It is Kalamazoo (K-zoo).

I'm wondering: do the places in this game have to be real?

Anyway, your turn.

After more than a year without any posts I guess it is okay if I just put up another place description:
This place is the bottleneck between the two pillars of an ancient Greek hero.

Nope, but Plato described Atlantis to be located beyond that place I'm talking of (a place which really exists).

Exactly. The Greeks called it the Pillars of Herkules (that's where the ancient hero comes in) and the Spanish flag includes a reference to this today, as it shows two pillars on each side of the coat of arms, symbolizing the pillars of Herkules.
Your turn Nick :)
