North Dakota: Zap

N 41° 49.828' W 89° 14.156'

While the origin of Zap’s energetic name is debated, the most widely accepted story suggests that it was named after a mining town in Scotland. The town was called Zapp due to having its own coal mine on the edge of town. But the North Dakota town’s true claim to fame isn’t its name. In 1969, Zap was the site of the “Zip to Zap” riot, a spring break party gone wrong that saw the National Guard and state troopers called in to disperse crowds of thousands of partiers from all over the U.S.
