I searched and could not find a thread about this. Thought it might be fun. If one already exists mods just delete mine.

We have a guy in Sacramento, CA that goes by Beer Money which I think is a GREAT handle.
He shoots skip and tells people. "If you've got Beer Money, you've got a friend in Sacramento".

Not sure if this guys handle was one of the best, but sure was funny. He went by "Toilet brush". I used to hear him say, "Toilet brush, back in a flush" lol.

Had a real good buddy back in the 80s who had a huge afro hairdo.
His handle was Brillo.
We used to call "How bout it Brillo. How bout that pot-scrubber.
He went by pot scrubber half the time.
He made it up himself so it was OK with all of us. But when people met him for the first time and put the handle to the hair. It always got a LOL.

My FIL's handle: Alien Ear. He had a 1/4 wave on his car years ago, so everyone thought he was listening for aliens.

We have a local CBer here who rides Harleys and has for years. Been on the radio a long time.
He goes by "Tuck n Roll". Probably given to him after one of his crashes. I'm sure it's not from upholstery

I met a local truck driver not too long ago,, handle is "Jack Knife",, now the funny part is he drives only the tractors (no trailers) to and from the company service department (a fleet service center here in Baltimore), undoubtedly he hauled a trailer once and it turned out bad.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

when cb boomed, there were 15,ooo people in my hometown, but we had 16,ooo cb handles, you name it, it was out there, people used to use several handles too. good,bad,funny,x-rated,
as a true cb'er, i'll answer to anything, call others by "funny" slang names, but keep it decent,, cause some of the self-declared rightious MF'rs have no sense of humor.
