Diversion - can you name the top 39 High School football team nicknames?

[DMD]

I got 27 out of 39 in seven minutes. It is harder than I thought.

Hint - NFL team names don't all work.

My High School, The Ramblers.

[CaptainHook]

20 out of 39

 

Much harder than I thought it would be!

[DMD]

I was stuck until I ran through every NFL team name and that helped. Seemed obvious when I saw the answers.

[Wolverines Fan]

I got 23. It's much harder than i thought.

18 I didn't even get one of HS mascots from my hometown (Bulldogs).

[Zooty]

21....uggh a bunch of gimmies I should have thought of. No surprise with #1 though

[Dont Rookie Me........]

[Mr Bad Example]

I guess I'm a stud, I got 30.

 

 

I had more success trying to run through college nicknames than NFL. Though I did count 14 NFL team names on the list (5 MLB names, one of which overlaps with an NFL name (hint hint), and 5 NBA names....although I'm NOT counting one each from NFL and NBA that halfway make it).

 

My hometown team "Eskymos" is shockingly not on the list.

15

[loaf]

16. I'm terrible

[Gopher]

28. Helped to go through the NFL, Big 10, etc. Probably got me an extra 5 or so.

[stevegrab]

I got 23 including 9 of the top 10 which surprisingly included one that I thought people find offensive

 

I'm sure the tips by some of you helped, but I hit a wall with about 3 minutes left and got may 2-4 more after that. I started looking at lists of other sports logos trying to think of which ones I missed.

 

I started trying some of the local names I've heard including my HS the Marshall "Lawyers", not on the list.

 

The #1 was easy for me, that was our team at my HS in Los Angeles before I moved to Ohio.

Had 31, but with about 8 seconds left I saw the headline "9 female pirates you should know" so I ended up with 32*. Just go through NFL teams, MLB teams, and Power 5 conference teams. You should get 35ish.

[Footballjoe]

I was awful as well. The same names stayed stuck in my head and then I started watching the clock.

[SoxBandit]

18. I am dumber than I thought.

I got 33. That was hard though. I got to the point I was just randomly entering names and seeing if it took.

[MustOfBeenDrunk]

For those who got 30 or more ,,,, get a life
