    No I’m not turning the classic forum into a culinary board. Chris P. Bacon was a cruiser weight boxer from England who retired with a record of 13-2 and never did much of note. But the name was certainly a legacy in and of itself !!!

    He never got big because nobody could think up a nickname for him.

    There was a forumite back in the day who swears they knew a guy named Firm P.P. Dinkins.

    Chris P "Delicious" Bacon
    Chris P "Juicy" Bacon
    Chris P "Crunchy" Bacon
    "Yummy' Chris P Bacon
    "Greasy" Chris P Bacon
    "Smokey" Chris P Bacon

    At least one of those options would have helped him get some more attention.
