There's a campaign in the works to name an airport in Birmingham, England after its native son, Ozzy Osbourne.

The person behind the idea is Jim Simpson, who's credited with discovering Black Sabbath. He previously tried to get the city to declare a Black Sabbath Day.

Simpson tells the Birmingham Mail, "How does the Ozzy Osbourne International Airport resonate? The message that would carry is instantly international, confident, powerful, unforgettable and says, 'Hey, world, we are proud of our own.' Ozzy might not always have been a paragon of virtue, but he is a genuine flesh and blood [Birmingham native]."

My guess is that the flights would run a little late, the announcements in the airport would be HILARIOUS and there would be the BEST airport bar on the face of the earth. But I could be wrong.
