"He was one of the worst-dressed players I’ve ever coached. They called him Dirt… He had some hair back then and even that was never kept."

I’ve read somewhere that the reason they used Gabby’s apt. in the movie Slapshot (as Reggie Dunlop’s apt) was because it was the smallest, messiest, unkempt apartment of any of the other players on the team at the time, so it was “perfect”…or something to that effect. If that’s true, then that quote kinda fits right in with that I suppose…

Dirt is a much better nickname than Gabby.
