A question I wondered about is ... how do you pronounce it?
or some other way I don't know about?
btw, nice to meet a Hoosier
the second one
there's a pie shop near me called "Hoosier Mama"
Didn't they also sell women's legwear and the shop is actually called "Hoosier Mama's Hosiery"
I'm remembering wrong, they were a major supplier for the escort fashion industry based in Indiana ....
"Hoosier Mama's Wholesale Hosier Supplier for Hoes"
They hosted a Christmas celebration in 1987 they called ....
“Hoosier Mama’s Wholesale Hosier Supplier for Hoes Holiday Hoedown for Whores"
Who shur is closer. Though some pronounce it more with a z sound instead of an s.
More like a French "j," as is "joie de vivre"
Yeah that's more accurate
