There's a nice pic of the rhinos (tubas) on the cover of the Wisconsin State Journal today.  The article isn't bad either.  Brings back a lot of good memories for me.

So what was your nickname 

Poopie.

Everyone calls me that.  Parents, in-laws, workmates... everybody.  It makes for interesting situations when I walk into a store or restaurant and a somebody calls out "Hey Poops!" without thinking.    A few of my other favorites:

Roadkill
Slapnuts
Sputnik -- for his "spaced-out" 1000 yard stare, now a recon marine.
Spit
Apple
Thor
Frisbee
Pixie -- he HATES that, but deserves it.
Chunk
d**e
Columbus
Stool
S***-eye
A**  pimples
Mason -- He was dating a trumpet player we called brick, so technically, he was a brick layer.  I thought that was pretty creative on our part.
