In the politically incorrect way of the sixties one of the older guys down at the gas station named him Three Finger Brown after a early 1900's ball player. He is still referred to by that nickname today.

I worked at a gas station owned by a Portugese family. Older neighborhood men would hang around all day reading the paper, smoking cigars, b-sing. They all called the owner "Portagee" and he called the Italian men "Dago." "Hey Portagee can I get my tires checked?" "Yeah Dago and then let's go get coffee." Those guys were a riot.
