        no, at least not that I have ever heard. 8 is actually a positive thing by itself - chanukah, etc. - b. Oct 9, 13:58

- Yes. It's silly -- nm - prayformojo Oct 9, 13:26
- It's probably because it's been mentioned on a couple of TV shows -- nm - Beryllium Oct 9, 13:25
Do you hang around white supremacists a lot, and don't want them to get the wrong idea about you? -- nm - znufrii Oct 9, 13:16 1
- they are *so* judgemental. -- nm - Andie Oct 9, 13:17
it...does? -- nm - Beaker Oct 9, 13:02 2
- "Neo-Nazis use the number 88 as an abbreviation for the Nazi salute Heil Hitler.[3] The letter H is eighth in the alphabet, whereby 88 becomes HH" - ReluctantCynic Oct 9, 13:47 1
  - I'd heard of it, but it would never occur to me to think of it in a context other than a news report on white supremacy or what have you. -- nm - znufrii Oct 9, 13:53
Wait, what? We're taking back a football jersey because...nevermind. Why buy it in the first place? -- nm - Jim Oct 9, 13:02 6
- H is the eighth letter in the alphabet -- nm - zork Oct 9, 13:04 5
  - maybe 88 means Humpty Hump -- nm* - Beaker Oct 9, 13:05 4
    - On the other hand, maybe if the player had a different name, it would be better ... - Beryllium Oct 9, 13:34

      - their discs should be burned. damn Nazis -- nm - Beaker Oct 9, 13:08
    - Or Harry Houdini. Or it means the number after 87 and before 89. -- nm - Jim Oct 9, 13:05
sure; but it's also meant to be lucky in chinese culture; and they had it first. -- nm - b. Oct 9, 12:55
duh -- nm - Spawn Oct 9, 12:53
Goes without saying -- nm - jangles Oct 9, 12:53
