    I read your about section and still don't understand what Boston has to do with cowbells. Are you trying to market this to non-MSU folks?

    We wanted to create a 1700's ambiance around the brand. Boston was one of the most relevant cities during this era, hence the name Boston. Will make this clearer on the website, thanks!

    And if there is a premium cowbell market outside of MSU of course haha, just didn't want to use a name directly related to MSU.

    Change this to a 1835's ambiance and rename Boardtown Bell Company. Too easy

    Forgot to mention, the abundance of hidden underground tunnels and secrets within the city of Boston made it seem best related to the product:

    1. The hidden compartment of the bell that holds the liquid.
    2. The secret drawer in the box that holds the coasters.

    We have some MSU reference in our logo, the top of the logo resembles the bell tower.
