Twitter-ers Suggest Mass. Town Slogans
BOSTON (CBS) -- Sometime mid-day Thursday something started on Twitter that seemed to be distracting quite a few people from whatever it was they were supposed to be doing.
While the state may have a few well-known slogans -- "You Can Make It In Massachusetts" and "The Spirit of Massachusetts is the Spirit of America" – many towns don't.
So when Salem announced its new slogan – "Still Making History" – people picked up on it and started suggesting their own slogans for other towns in the Bay State using the hashtag #MATownSlogans.
Some people took into consideration the town's geography.
Springfield - No we're not in New York Boston! -- @CGregz
Pittsfield - Might as well be New York. -- @CGregz
Holliston: the town next to the town where the marathon starts. -- @PatsPropaganda
Bourne- we're the place with the bridges you use on your way to the rest of the Cape. -- @justinanderson1
Others took justice with business in the towns.
