Alice Cooper received the key to the city of Alice, North Dakota, on Sunday.

The town has a population of about 60 people, one bar and one firehall, to name just a few of its small assets.

However, about 1,000 people greeted Cooper as his limo pulled through the small town to attend the service.

“There’s not a whole lot of buildings to unlock with that key,” Mayor Dan Lund said. “But Alice is a cool guy and Alice is a cool city ? so it’s a fun thing to do.”

The town was not named after Cooper, but rather like many other towns in North Dakota, was named for the daughter of a railroad surveyor.

Cooper was presented with a plaque and a key to commemorate the occasion, and the rocker stayed around for roughly 30 minutes to sign autographs for local fans.
