Can anything good come from Papillion?

In today's Gospel, when Philip tells Bartholomew that they have found the Christ: Jesus of Nazareth, he says, "Can anything good come from Nazareth?"

If we change the statement to "Can anything good come from Papillion?" we tend to laugh. In that we realize how the others reacted to that statement. We should also note that even though Bartholomew makes fun of Jesus's home town, Jesus still calls him as an Apostle.
