Worst Nicknames EverEveryone wants a cool nickname like "Ace", "Boss", or "Iron". Kids being kids, that's not what we get - the kid with polio gets called Johnny Spazm, your Ginger Fuhrer was called Rob Man-you-smell and your question master was "Tommy" Trinder despite him being dead for years.
Tell us the worst you've heard and the stories behind them.

NicknamesI play rugby and have copped some specials in my time.
As I was one of the first to get hair on my chest I was labelled "Beast".
Later on in life I was playing inside centre in a team where the whole back line was over 6 foot. Me being 5" 7' the term "Potato Gem" was coined.
But I have got my own back.
Once called a bloke "Showbag" as he was full of shit. (for those that dont know a showbag is something you get at a fair, that contains toys and sweets).
His brother came to play for the club and was nicknamed "Handbag".
A winger who didnt like to tackle was called "Shitscared".
A squat ugly prop forward had the infamous name of "Womble".
And a man from New Zealand heralded as "Fugs" - F*cking Ugly.
