2. The Undertaker & Pals Are Bonded By Ink
The 'Bone Street Krew' has to be the funniest f*cking gang name ever. It's even funnier if you try to picture the discussion in which the name was arrived at.
"We're tight, like brothers. We're in a gang. We need to come up with a name," the Undertaker must have said. His brothers nodded. "F*ck yeah we do. It needs to sound tough, like" Henry O. Godwinn said. We ain't no namby-pamby Kliq types."
"I reckon you're right," 'Taker said. "Hey, what about this. We kick ass, right? We break bones. Bones...what if we break so many bones that we can make a street full 'of em?"
"What about the Bone Street Boys?" Phineas I. Godwinn asked.
'Taker spat out his tobacco, disgusted. "Sounds like a sissy boy band."
It's all less funny when you recall that that 'Bone' was an informal word for dominos, which 'Taker et al. played backstage, but the misspelling of "crew" is still priceless. It's simply funny to imagine that the lads were rocking out to Helmet In The Bush and had to spell it with a "K".
Perhaps they all said "kewl" to one another after their matches.
