Psst - it's a hoax:

"The Hoosier Gazette was created by a couple of guys who thought it would be fun to create a website that uses both real and fictional news stories to provide a humorous look at life and culture in the state of Indiana..."

Sorry, Byron :)

This would not be the first time a number was changed on a highway. You can read the fate of US 666.

Sixty-nine is divine. What's the problem?

What Sarah said.

Actually, we don't know if it's true or a hoax; Hoosier Gazette is not strictly satire.

I posted it over at AGS ( http://www.forumforfree.com/forums/index.php?mforum=ags&showtopic=15280 ); a friend of mine from Indiana didn't know if it was true, but he thought it might be given Hostettler's wacky wingnut tendencies.

At any rate, I didn't post here for the reason that I couldn't verify it.
