A Baby Named After A Hockey Stick

High school dropout Bristol Palin, the 18-year-old daughter of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, has given birth to a baby boy.

Tripp Easton Mitchell weighs in at 7 pounds, 4 ounces, or about as heavy as a sack of hockey pucks.

The father, Levi Johnston, also a high school dropout, was a star hockey player at Wasilla High School. A sucker for nostalgia, Johnston and Palin forever saddled baby Tripp with the middle name Easton.

Easton is the brand of hockey stick that Johnston wielded at Wasilla.

Seriously.

I mean, seriously?

Yes, seriously.
