The teacher said he'd say what-ever he wanted because it was his classroom
They actually got into a fist fight over it. Both guys went to jail. My dad came home and told me,:" he won't be calling you Larry anymore."
A week later, that teacher came into school for the first time since then and never called me Larry again. lol

Now, I'm not a child and I want to let you all know, though I don't care for the name Larry, I won't be child-ish over it. Just wanted to share a funny story.
Hope you realize because Omaha will now always call you you Larry
