    Actually, in session 1 04, it was "Spitalians" not "Sportalians".

    Also, isn't the point of an encyclopedia to be factual?

    I've heard Spitalians, Sportalians, Franco-Sportalians, Pug-Fugly and something which incorporates the Spanish, French, Italian, Portugese and Dutch.


    Ye got hoodies!!!

    People just took the idea too far.

    'Hey, you know what nationality we should add today? Swiss! Now they're Sportofrancissalionawegians!'
    'Wait! What about adding some Peruvians!'

    It's a vicious cycle

    I was happy with Spitalians...
    They come from Spittaly.
    And it doesn't sound too much like a reference to sport.

    yea! i have been waring my hoodie EVERY day since i left, except for a weird red monstrosity every 4 days when i am forced to wash it.

    i always remember sportalians, but in my first year, (05), people were shouting about the two. but they will always be sportalians. from sportalia.
