London, France
London is a small agricultural village in the commune of Savigny-sur-Seille in the Arrondissement of Louhans in Saône-et-Loire, Burgundy, France. 80 kilometres south of Dijon, the D206 road goes through the village.
Its brief claim to fame was its part in an ambush marketing campaign by the bookmaker Paddy Power in 2012. Prior to the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, England, the company sponsored an egg-and-spoon race in the Burgundy village, and then placed large posters in Britain claiming that they were "The official sponsor of the largest athletics event in London this year!", adding beneath "Ahem, London France that is". While the Games' organising committee threatened legal action against Paddy Power for breaching special laws restricting unauthorized "associations" with the Olympics, it backtracked after Paddy Power threatened to take the organizers to court.
