Many years ago, I rode an excursion over the Wisconsin Central from Superior to Ladysmith, WI. The excursion was named the "Laker" after the Soo Line train which traversed this line until 1965. I purchased a commemorative T-shirt.
Sometime after that excursion, I was walking around with that T-shirt when a woman asked if I was with the Lakers. The T-shirt had an image of a SOO Line FP7A and a map of the Laker route and no basketball imagery whatsoever.
Larry: your silly question reminds me of her. If you watch the video your question will be answered.
By the way, in case you didn't know by now, "Laker" is also a term used for vessels which ply the Great Lakes.
