Move over Robbie Neiswanger, you’ve been usurped

Our American friends over at Fan IQ have carried out a serious journalistic investigation into the most unusual names in sport, and here are the best of their findings:

Fart
A pro women’s football league in Norway, who have managed to get away with a ridiculous name for nearly 74 years.

The Macon Whoopee
A hockey team in Georgia, USA used this name in combination with two mascots: a bird and a bee. Subtle.

The BSC Young Boys
A Swiss football team who like to call the Wankdorf Stadium home. Cue headlines like

Without question, my favourite sports reporter The Arkansas Morning News’ very own Robbie Neiswanger. Not only does he have a rude-sounding surname, but he writes for a website called nwaonline.net, which is strangely devoid of late 80s hip hop news.

Also, he is reporting on a town named Fayetteville. Which could sound a little like ‘Fatville’ in certain accents. Which is funny.
