The front page looks legit enough and they sure do hide the fact that it's a satire site. Maybe some of their stories are more obviously satire but this one could very easily be mistaken as real.
From their disclaimer link:
DISCLAIMER
The Hoosier Gazette is a satirical newspaper published by The Hoosier Gazette
The Hoosier Gazette uses invented names in all its stories, except in cases when public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental.
DRATS!
It'd be funny if it was real.
