Hammond Organs?
“Indiana is home to the black bear. Go with it.”
Be careful...might be considered racist.

People in New England think nothing of driving three to four hours to get to Gillete Staduim in Foxborough Mass.
But we have real football to watch.
“Hammond Eggs”

Da’Bears ought to get the H out of there. In fact every one who wants to build a decent life, and prosper, needs to get the H out
Just call it Da Bears.
The Shitcago Bears of Indiana.
Hammond Armor!
Oh, Armand Hammer. Right.
Never mind
Hoosier Bears
