Could the new state capital be Flavortown, Ohio?

More than 25,000 have signed a Change.org petition to change the name of Columbus to Flavortown, in honor of native celebrity chef Guy Fieri.

The city has already decided to remove the statue of the city’s namesake Christopher Columbus from outside City Hall.

The petition argues that the city should take the next step.

“Why not rename the city Flavortown? The new name is twofold. For one, it honors Central Ohio’s proud heritage as a culinary crossroads and one of the nation’s largest test markets for the food industry. Secondly, “cheflebrity” Guy Fieri was born in Columbus, so naming the city in honor of him (he’s such a good dude, really) would be superior to its current nomenclature,” Change.org petition creator Tyler Woodbridge said.
