AA - rockets, KK - cowboys, QQ - two pairs of boobs, 99 - Phil Hellmuth, 88 - snowmen, 22 - ducks, AK - Anna Kournikova, K2 - Donald Duck, J7 - Jack Daniels, 72 - beer hand, 74 - claws eagle, A3 - ashtray, A2 - hunting season
55 - snakes, speed limit; 66 - Highway 66Woolworths is a name I found funny. This name is for T5 because apparently Woolworths was a popular "Nickel and Dime store" back in the day
Some of the pocket pair hands I find funny though:
22 Ducks, 33 Crabs, 44 Sailboats, 77 Hockey sticks, and TT being TnT
AK called "Big Slick" is an honorable mention to me on the list of funny names
p.s. Anyone know what 55 or 66 are called? I don't know a name for these, but all other pocket pairs I know at least one slang term for.
