Walton Hornets

The Walton Hornets are the football team for the town of Walton, Connecticut, in Adrian Yunevich and Roger Landry's Over the Garden Wall fanfiction.

History
The Hornets were founded as the Walton Reds in 1912. In 1940, their name was changed to the Walton Panthers; after their 0-7 1958 season, they became the Walton Wizards. Fans began to remark the name was cursed after Walton lost their third straight championship in 1970, and so their name was again changed to the Walton Hornets. They won the championship that first year, and the name stuck.
