Excerpt

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth....and Hobart.

12,000 Years Ago, woolly mammoths inhabited Hobart.  They were not defensive linemen for the Bearcats.

December 20, 1803, Hobart and some other land was sold by France to the fledgling United States of America.  The whole shebang was called the Louisiana Purchase.
