It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas
"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" is a Christmas song written in 1951 by Meredith Willson.

Iowa Fight Song
The" Iowa Fight Song" is one of three fight songs currently used by the University of Iowa Hawkeye Marching Band along with On Iowa and Roll Along Iowa.
The music and lyrics were written by Iowa native Meredith Willson, author of The Music Man, in 1951.
The song is mostly a contrafact to his hit," It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas," much in the same way that" 76 Trombones" and" Goodnight, My Someone" from The Music Man are based on the same harmonic structure.
The song was used in a 2007 commercial for the Iowa Lottery, where a Hawkeye fan sings different words to it for an instant ticket game.
Meredith Willson's widow, Rosemary, protested the song's use in a lottery commercial, while university faculty members urged the athletic department to distance itself from the state lottery, fearing it would promote gambling.
The ad was pulled soon after.
