...but I don't even know anyone in Nigeria
Here's a quick hint: anyone who's flown in or out of Los Angeles knows that the airport is referred to as "LAX" both in popular culture and in official travel circles; it's what you type in when looking for a flight on Expedia or Travelocity. What you don't type in, and I get a kick out of the fact that I never made this mistake until after I moved here, is LOS. That'll get you looking at flights to what I'm sure is a very nice airport in Nigeria, and leave you feeling LOL (but probably not so much if you actually book it by mistake).
