"(Back Home Again in) Indiana" is a song composed by James F. Hanley with lyrics by Ballard MacDonald that was published in January 1917.

From 1947 until 2020, thousands of multicolored balloons would be released from an infield tent during the song, until the practice was halted citing environmental concerns.

He admitted to having the song's lyrics written on his hand during his inaugural performance, and occasionally his versions altered several of the words.

It made fun of that year's Republican Vice Presidential nominee and Indiana native Dan Quayle's military service in the Indiana National Guard during the Vietnam War, allowing him to avoid deployment to Vietnam.

Lesser known contrafacts of "Indiana" include Fats Navarro's "Ice Freezes Red"[5] and Lennie Tristano's "Ju-Ju".
