Get Sauced


Name: Special Sauce

Origin: North Face Special Sauce Full Zip, a pacific blue and red jacket* in the Men's Apparel>Coats & Jackets section of UrbanOutfitters.com (was $64.99, now $49.99!), via the flagship sandwich sold at McDonald's fast food restaurants.

Suggested Uses:
1. DJ: To the best of our knowledge, no one has adopted the moniker DJ Special Sauce in order to make a career spinning the 1's and 2's. We uncovered what may be evidence for a song or an MC, but no DJs, and we honestly have no idea why that is the case. This is the name of one who concocts new and exciting beats never heard before. If that is you, become DJ Special Sauce and let the turntables be your test kitchen.
2. Streetballer: The streetball is a distant, hip-hop cousin of the DJ, and we feel that Special Sauce** could make his competitors look and feel foolish on a basketball court. As with the DJ, this particular streetballer would be inventing new moves to arouse Ooohs and Aaahs from adoring crowds sitting on bleachers or leaning on chain-link fences. This player would not be adept at dunking, but at hoodwinking his foes with his mastery of dribbling in radical and unimitable ways, and passing in a nearly ridiculous, highly-improbable style. Simply put, Special Sauce is a master of making the basketball appear and disappear as his pleases.

*We have no idea why this particular jacket has Special Sauce as a part of its name. We feel we may be missing something because of the lack of obvious clues, but we will not be troubled by that for very long.

**We are aware of Hot Sauce and his And1 fame. Perhaps this influenced our suggested use as a streetball nickname, but it only dawned on us after we proposed the name. We are not attempting to infringe. We just call them as we see them, and we see that there are plenty of sauces out there for culinary uses, so we not for sporting uses as well?
