The Ten Funniest Names in Sports History!
Otherwise known as, ‘Why I Hate my Parents.’
January 6th, 2010 James LeBeau
The first gift that a child receives, other than life, is usually a name. A name can shape and guide you throughout your life and can play a key role in a person’s development. Unfortunately, some people are thrown behind the 8 ball at an early age. Here’s a list of ten athletes who may need some serious therapy time thanks to their parents. But give credit where credit is due, they have achieved some sort of permanent notoriety as some of the funniest people in sports history!
Ron Tugnutt – A former NHL goaltender that played for various teams from 1984 to 2004.*
Gregor Fucka – This Italian basketball player goes by the nickname “uncle”…I kid you not.*
Dick Trickle – Only in NASCAR would a name like this fit, though you have to wonder what his parents were thinking.
Lucious Pusey – Gotta feel sorry for this former college football player growing up. The stigma of this name was so bad that he had his last name changed to Seymour.*
Harry Colon – Harry played 6 NFL seasons from 1991-97 with the Patriots, Lions and Jaguars and holds the record for sickest image imagined by a name.*
Dick Pole – A pitcher for the Mariners and Red Sox in the ’80′s< Dick may not win first place on my list but his name is sure to bring a chuckle.
B.J. Johnson – It’s simple and basic humor for this NFL player but you can’t go wrong with classic Penis jokes!
Misty Hyman – A former Olympic gold medalist, Misty wins the gold for funniest name. GOLD Winner
Rusty Cuntz – Kuntz played outfield for the White Sox, Twins and Tigers from 1979 to 1985. He wins second place for funniest name in my book behind good old Misty Hymen. SILVER Winner
Chubby Cox – This former professional basketball player is actually named John but preferred to go by “Chubby”. BRONZE Winner
