Do you know of, or have you met anyone who actually endorses/likes the name Folsom Lake Crossing for the bridge?

If it were Folsom Canyon Crossing (or Bridge), I know one who would approve.

I love this southern californian's comment to the Sac Union article listed at the bottom of their article....

"...The City of Folsoms legacy is their prison. The other members of the city council need to remember this fact.

Okay, so now you want to name it the Folsom Prison Bridge? I'd go for that. Or keep the Crossing so that we can have Double Crossing runs and bike rides and stuff.

I love that the bottom of that article stated:
Coincidently related, this year all of the cows seen grazing on the Folsom State Prison property show solid black coats.

Pretty funny stuff.

Folsom Lake Crossing, Lake Natoma Crossing....

the Double Crossing Folsom Triathalon.....talk about media, we can say we named it after the City Council. (you know since they like the term "crossing" so much"
