bunny hug
Here's another article that doesn't require a sign-in.
Long story short: People in Saskatchewan call hoodies "bunny hugs" and no one knows why.

re: "no one knows why" i've heard it was like department store catalogue regional marketing copy. i know that doesn't fully explain "why" but it's at least a bit of an explanation.
I've heard so many explanations I'm pretty sure Saskatchewan is like the Joker, coming up with a different lie every time someone asks.
Also like the Joker, Saskatchewan is fictional
Thank you. I didn't have that requirement.
I've only been to Saskatoon in Canada, so assumed all Canadians did that...
Just them. We all think it's super weird.
