1. The belief in the Indiana University sports teams. This is pretty much school pride. However, the Gods of Hoosierism are the varsity players.

Holidays:

Jan 1st-A relaxful day, no one does any work at all.

Homecoming Football Game Day-Hoosierists fill the stadium cheering on the IU football team.

March Madness Bracket Selection Show Day-A very festive day especially if the IU basketball teams did well that year. If the men's and/or women's teams get selected to play in the 65 team tournament, this special day becomes National Hoosier day. Lots of partying ensues.

Places of Worship:
The Indiana University Basketball Gym and Football Field
Setting: Idaho

Person A: Did you see that man dressed in all Indiana clothing?? He must be a Hoosierist!!
Person B: What's a Hoosiersist?
Person A: One who believes in Hoosierism.

There appears to be some confusion with this definition. The term "Hoosier" does in fact include West County. A proper definition of "hoosier" is anyone who lives west of 270 or south of Clayton Road. Basically if you dont live in Clayton, U-City, Ladue, or North County, you are a hoosier. Sorry Chesterfield, you guys are big hoosiers. x
I went to parkway-somthing and am a hoosier. x

An elaborate game involving at least three people.

The players stand in a wide circle, and regularly switch places. There are many possible rounds, most which have not been recorded.
"Hey man, wanna play some Hoosier?"

"Yeah dude! As long as we include the Blind Round!"

People who cannot drive anything, even the basketball.
Person 1: "I almost got hit three times on the drive to work today."
Person 2: "You must be from Indiana!"
Person 1: "Yep, Home of the Hoosiers."

a hilbilly from indiana. they got that name cuz the hilbillys in indiana are always fighting with each other and occasionally they mite get a busted nose or their ear cut off. in the case of the latter, after they were all done fighting, the people would be in the street and find the ear and theyd go "whos ear is this?" and since the rednecks are lazy too, it would just come out like "HOOSIER is this?" HOOSIER
