  3. Still alive at 82!

    From Wikipedia-
    Powell received the nickname "Boog" from his father. As Powell explained, "In the South they call little kids who are often getting into mischief buggers (pronounced 'boogers'), and my dad shortened it to Boog."

  7. If gay marriage had been around in the 1960s, maybe Boog Powell could have married one of the Alou brothers, and then Boog would have been "Boog Alou"!
