We had a Route 69 in Centeral PA, but when it was widened, we renamed it to "The Hershey Highway".

It's good to see that Rep. Hostettler is working on a life-and-death issue. ::eye roll::

The main reason to change it is that it would save a fortune in signs. They keep getting stolen.

Let's let the gays own the language, shall we?

Always make sure you have a knee-jerk reaction to anything, even a number, that might have a dual meaning to people with dirty minds.

the number should be changed to save the taxpayer's money! The kids are going to stealing the signs constantly.

It's a parody.

But I do wonder if the I 69 buttons are legit. I could get a lot of Christmas shopping done early.

I am originally from Oklahoma (now in TN) and there is a Highway 69 that runs North-South through the entire state.

I would hate to think that they would try to change the name of it for some stupid reason.

Hoosier Gazette articles are drawn from different sources and some are fictitious or satirical. The Hoosier Gazette uses invented names in some stories, except in cases where public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental. The reader should suspend belief for the sake of enjoyment.
