That is exactly what they do. Every tournament for 35 years, to the best of my knowledge.

Ah, but do you pronounce Topeka's state as kinSAW? ;)
Of course not! You're mixing up with the land of opportunity, Ar-KanSAS.
Of all these manglings, most are personal middle child cries for help, but Hawa-ya is absolutely indigenous pronunciation of the Aloha State. IllinoiZ is infrequent but also heard if you hang around the tire store. I reason if Bay Staters are allowed to leave off half of their place names (Worcester, e.g.) then I can pronounce the consonants that exist ;).

OK, mods, I promise no more wasted off-topic posts
