Michigan has a "thumb" (between Saginaw Bay and Lake Huron), and
Virginia has a "toe" (roughly, the portion between Kentucky and
Tennessee -- or roughly the area included in NPA 276, to include at
least a nominal telecom reference).

And the portion of Pennsylvania that borders Lake Erie is sometimes
referred to as the "chimney corner".

There are undoubtedly other colorfully named territorial divisions.

One them is the "boot heel" or "bootheel" of Missouri, a more common
name for what somebody said was called Missouri's panhandle.
