If a Springfield is listed on Google Maps, it counts. If you fail, you must pay back the money.

Hello there! I am a signature. I'm kinda surprised you're even reading me, to be honest. Most people wouldn't bother. You're better than that though. Thank you.

According to Wiki there are only 67 populated areas with Springfield in the United States and I think they're all on the contiguous US. For 10M just take 6 months and make a road trip of it.

Don't do that in Springfield, Ohio. Stop somewhere else.

Did Google have a stroke trying to figure out how to label them? Going from West to East, it goes A through I, then back to ABC, then it skips to H, I anf back to G then starts going backwards.

"If a Springfield is listed on Google Maps, it counts."

So I need to visit the cities named Springfield. What about counties named Springfield? Public parks named Springfield? Malls? Country clubs? Elementary Schools? Springfield Manor Winery Distillery Brewery?

I feel stupid, but there are 50 states. One would imagine a state has ONE city with a name, not two cities with the same name. How does this happen. Wouldn't it cause confusion for the UPS or for anyone. If I'm in springfield, Ohio or whatever do I say Springfield 1, Ohio vs Springfield 2, Ohio. Is it all just zip codes at that point? This sounds ridiculous to hear or try to figure out.

Before seeing that map, I thought to myself "How many can there be, 4 maybe 5?"

This was my first thought, but the outrageous sum of 10M made me guess there might be enough that visiting them all in 365 days might be an actual challenge.

But no, this is really just the easiest giveaway ever.

I had a similar question, but mine is more along the lines of "why" would anyone decide to have more than one Springfield in any state? Like why wouldn't you name it something else? What good is having two of the same city/town name in the same state?

As long as I get the money immediately, I can probably manage it. No way in hell can I afford all the gas and possible car repairs needed to make this trip on my own, but if I can spend some of the cash on the car, fuel, snacks, etc., I should be fine.
