Far Out Names

[MTM]

Not really fitting here, but I once covered a HS football game where local team played a first-year team from the other side of the state. We had no information on the team (pre-internet), no roster or anything. I asked the visiting coach "what's your nickname?" His response: "Most people just call me George" Oh, the only way I got the roster was he had a student manager walk with me while the team was doing warmups and matched names and numbers.

I had the same thing happen in the same situation. New school, assistant coach. But I actually got a nickname. I don't recall exactly what he said, but it was a Hispanic guy and it was Pancho or Nacho or something similar.
