Gettysburg is a city inPennsylvania,United States of America that held theBattle of Gettysburg during theAmerican Civil War. The battle was won by theUnion, though not without major casualties from both parties, and served as a turning point for theGettysburg Campaign. It also served as the location forAbraham Lincoln's famousGettysburg Address in 1863, taking place near theGettysburg National Cemetery where many soldiers who had died in the war were put to rest. InMario's Time Machine,Bowser travels back in time to 1862 to steal Abraham Lincoln's signatureStovepipe Hat, and the area becomes filled withKoopa Troopas,Bodyslam Koopas, andWalking Turnips. Mario, after taking back the Stovepipe Hat, travels back in time himself to Gettysburg to return it. He then travels to a gate marked with the words "GETTYSBURG" and leaves the hat in front it, then leaves (with a newspaper article saying that Lincoln refused to sign the Gettysburg Address without his hat, despite that taking place in 1863).
