Holy shit @NewEraCap, I thought the buckeye was a poor choice until I saw the clip art of what I assume is "chili" but from people who have never seen Cincinnati chili pic.twitter.com/Gt77doPqmc

There is a lot going on with some of these local market hats but I think my favorite detail is the range in area code representation—7 different ones for the Twins, 8 for the Cubs, 9 for the Braves, and *zero* for the Pirates??? pic.twitter.com/G0kKXp5TE3
