(Spartanburg SC's nickname is "Hub City".)

What food-themed team names would you like to see?

Aspen Asparagus?

Everton FC are known as The Toffees (Everton Toffees are a traditional local delicacy).
Bournemouth FC are nicknamed The Cherries (but I don't know why).

Sometimes related to industry. Macclesfield Town called the silkmen.
Manchester United are the red devils, probably the kit.
Mossley called the Lily Whites, the kit is white. Support your local non league!
