I admittedly am biased being a Penn State alumnus of Penn State, however I always found the name Nittany Lions to be rather unique.

Also, the Altoona Curve, with the dual meaning is unique in a good way.

Couldn't do this thread though without mentioning the Tonopah (NV) High School Muckers.

I'm going to be a homer in saying that my alma mater has quite a unique team nickname, the Cary High School (Cary, NC) Imps. Formerly the White Imps, before integration.

Lincoln City Footbal Club in England have been the Red Imps for a long time.

Freeport Fighting Pretzels, Freeport High School, IL.

Seriously.

Fighting Pretzels.

I don't care to sift back through this thread, but since we're discussing minor-league baseball in western PA...have the Washington Wild Things been mentioned yet?

Oh, and I can add local teams that used to exist:

Schenectady(NY) Frog Alleys: New York State League 1903

Troy(NY) Washerwomen: Eastern League 1894, New York State League 1900-01

The Graham Clayton High School in New South Wales, Australia goes by the "Bumpers."

the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall

Montana offers some fun ones, for example:

Belfry Bats

Forsyth Dogies

Hot Springs Savage Heat

Plains Horsemen (girls' teams are "Trotters")

And my favorite:

Chinook Sugarbeeters

My high school was the Broncs. Not Broncos. No "O."
