And pointing back home - The Adelaide 36ers in basketball... wtf do we have 36 of that is uniquely South Australian? >.<
You will find that Adelaide was founded in 1836

FINALLY... thank you. I have asked loads of people and no one knows/knew why.
If that is the case, then I applaud it... albeit a little abstract.

Not really, its baskettball and the NAB has its own SIXERS, the Philadelphia 76'ers after the US Declaration of Independence, proclaimed in Philadelphia in 1776.Way back in my Qld days when we searching for a nickname I suggested the 59'ers, similar to San Francisco, 1859 the year QLD broke away from NSW as an independent colony. I probably would have got greater support if it had happened 10 years later.

Some good names there....hahaha. Anyway good luck to the state team in April. Hopefully they can recapture the title - seeing we havent had it since 1996!Speaking of which, do we have good numbers out at training? I know that traditionally we have had very poor state training attendance. Are there any fund raisers going for the side? Can't be involved at the moment but happy to buy raffle tickets or attend a function etc to support the side.
