History Section?[edit]

I think it would be a good idea to add a History Section, with mentions of George Earle, famous people, school accomplisments. Perhaps a homage to Don Howell would be a bit much, but Hobart is more colorful than the data from the 2000 census.

Consider it done.[edit]

can't you put something in here about William Revelli? He was legendary! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daelynn92 (talk • contribs) 20:14, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

External links[edit]

The External links section needs to be smaller, there are several links that could be used as an in line citation instead. -Jahnx (talk) 09:38, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia[edit]

Just saw Hobart mentioned (twice!) in an old Law and Order episode, "Blood" from 1997. Of course they mispronounce it the same way the Chicago weathermen do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.227.77.90 (talk) 12:46, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can't think of any other specific episodes, but I know Hobart got mentioned in more than one L&O episode and at least one L&O:SVU episode. Always figured that a Hobartite was somewhere on Dick Wolf's staff.Gtwfan52 (talk) 09:09, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you all who helped stop the vandals on this page today. Gtwfan52 (talk) 19:30, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Transit[edit]

Could the locals create a section for transit, especially to Chicago? Most city pages have bus and train information. This one doesn't. 2605:E000:AA14:FA00:B0B1:35F5:6E3A:6570 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 22:03, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
