I might have gotten it if an obviously-American said "bathroom", but yeah, that would have gotten me as well.
When I was in my last year of school, we had an exchange student from Arizona in our class. I asked her what she planned to study at university. She said, "La!" I was like, "La?" "Yep, la! And mebbe one day ah'll be a female judge in my state!" Sure enough, she was off to law school the next year.
