Gipper Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 Lest we never forget the very politically correct Wabash Apaches! With that, other PC losers have to go out to the Anderson,Lake Central, Missisnewa, Portage, South Bend St. Joseph's Indians, and no, you're not immune Brebeuf Braves and Calumet Warriors...or even you, South Newton Rebels...

Gipper Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) I also must feel bad for Bloomington North, Carroll, and New Prairie High Schools because whenever somebody says "Go Cougars", a bunch of horny old broads with hyper libidos hit the field...

Gipper Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 Logansport Berries, Noblesville Millers (a fancy term for farmer), Rensselaer Central Bombers, and although these last two don't field tackle football squads, they deserve mention: the Shakamak Lakers and Shoals Jug Rox...

Boilernation Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) Any SW Indiana fans know the meaning behind Alices for Vincennes? I'm a big fan of nicknames that hold meaning to an area. Speedway Sparkplugs (Pretty Obvious) Whiting Oilers (massive Oil Refinery on Lake Michigan in Whiting) Hobart Brickies (I've heard there used to be a large brickyard in Hobart) Floyd Central Highlanders (I'm guessing it has to do with being on high ground overlooking the Ohio River and Kentucky Noblesville Millers (Old Mill plant in Noblesville) LaPorte Slicers (Meat Slicing Manufacturer) Edited August 23, 2019 by Boilernation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEIFootballGuy Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I'm pretty biased, but the aforementioned Railroaders of Garrett is pretty killer. Not only is it a cool mascot, but it has ties to the railroad roots of the town of Garrett. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
