LOL Alrik, You're not the first to notice my somewhat strange username-- to tell the truth, I'm actually not the sauerkrautiest person in the world; I don't put it on my hot dogs, don't eat it with kielbasa... actually, don't eat it at all! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> The nickname comes from a fabled tradition from the Pittsburgh Penguins hockey team (yeah, I know they were terrible in the last season that was actually -played- in the NHL), of eating sauerkraut if you were in a scoring slump. It worked wonders for one team member that was on their 2x Stanley Cup championship roster in the early 90s, and he told Martin Straka in the 2001-2002 season to eat sauerkraut before the next game, since he had been having trouble scoring goals...

And so it came to pass that Marty did indeed eat the sauerkraut, and went on to record a flurry of goals, as no great surprise to his sauerkraut-loving mentor. Thereafter, good old Marty was known as The Sauerkraut Kid, and my username was born... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

So if you play hockey, or know someone that does, don't forget to heed the sauerkraut advice if you need to score more goals <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />



When you find a big kettle of crazy, it's best not to stir it.
