8p9s Contest: You Give Roy Hibbert a Nickname, We Give You Free T-Shirts

Who likes free stuff?

Here’s your chance to win a free prize package of four t-shirts, five beer koozies and various other goodies (see photo below) courtesy of Indy’s famous Scotty’s Brewhouse.

All you have to do is come up with a nickname for Roy Hibbert.

Those of you familiar with my work on Both Teams Played Hard know that I’m a big fan of nicknames. It really doesn’t matter whether we’re talking about Pacers favorites like The Rifleman (Chuck Person) and The Dunkin’ Dutchman (Rik Smits), timeless NBA classics like The Microwave (Vinnie Johnson) and Cornbread (Cedric Maxwell) or my own creations like Switchblade (Trevor Ariza) and Daggers (Brandon Roy). They’re all good.

And it troubles me that the Pacers have a young, charismatic, 7’2″ center without a real nickname.

That’s where you come in.

Submit your best creations in the comments below (or via email to 8pts9secs@gmail.com) and our committee of experts (me and Tim) will select a winner at the end of the day. You will be able to pick up your prizes at Scotty’s downtown location near Conseco Fieldhouse (1 Virginia Avenue).

(Just be sure to include you your email address in the proper place so that I can contact you when you win. Emails will never be used for any purpose other than to give you free stuff.)

Scotty’s Brewhouse is offering up 4 XL tees, five drink koozies and some beads. Check out some of their many other promotions and offers at their website.
