Consdering they went with "Wander Indiana" complete with an annoying earworm song in my youth...it'd be a reasonable motto. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my; the "Wander Indiana" jingle could definitely be added to my top 20 ear worms... 🚗 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 It's been a long time since it debuted but just about everyone who was alive in the state at the time can still hum it automatically when seeing one of the old plates. It's like something from a magical curse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook'emCavies Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 Is that jingle like how most Texans have to clap when they here "Deep in the Heart of Texas"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Hoosiers might be challenged with clapping and singing at the same time. Just kidding. But many Hoosiers tear up upon hearing "Back Home Again in Indiana." (It's coming up soon at the start of the Indy 500.) My high school band played that piece in Nixon's inaugural parade in 1972. We marched what was called "drum corps style" back then. Protestors along the route yelled at us for having rifles and sabres. Seems like I might have written this before, so sorry for repetition: Our band parents split up from us after that 1972 parade and walked on their own to the busses. They walked near the Washington Monument and witnessed protestors pulling down all the American flags and setting them on fire. It's important for old folks to keep reminding younger folks that tumult has occurred in years other than just the last four or five. "Four dead in O-hi-o." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
