Of Topeka and the Pikachu

Jump to Comments

Fun Fact: just as Topeka temporarily changed its name to Google, Kansas (and sparked the search engine April Fool’s joke), the state capital previously changed its name to ToPikachu in 1998 to honor the Pokemon franchise.

I wonder how many hits The Culture Market would require in order for Topeka, Kansas to adopt us as their name sake as well? Just a thought.
