Pretty sure I remember Heinz being on Wigan Athletic's shirts a few years ago, no surprise as their baked bean factory is quite near Pietown.

#PieTown, #NewMexico got its name because the wife of the man who owned the gas station gave a delicious piece of pie with every fill up. Everyone called it Pie Town, so finally the name was changed and they still make fabulous pies in Pie Town.
