Having been a long time collector of Rhode Island brewery advertising as well as long time Red Sox fan and recent pre-war collector of Sox stuff, I use "HiNeighbor" because it was the slogan of the Narragansett Brewing Company from the late 40s through the 60s. Narragansett just so happened to be a major advertiser and supporter of the Red Sox. Many who are old enough will remember Curt Gowdey and his "Hi Neighbor have a Gansett" calls.

By the Way Kevin.....Have you ever seen a can of Purple Cow lager that was put out by Narragansett during the 60s for two class reunions? Thought of you when I saw your purple cow.
