    You never heard crowd's join in and give a rousing rendition of 'All Coons Look Alike to Me' anymore, do you? Good, clean family entertainment that's no longer prevalent at sporting venues, sadly.

    It's not slang but you'll never hear "The undisputed heavyweight champion of the world" announced anymore.

    Openly refering to opponents as "ham and eggers" or "tomato cans" or "palookas"... Basically calling it like it is.
