From the "No, You Really Can't Make This Stuff Up" Dept.:

By now, I am certain that most everyone has heard the sad tale of Timken High School in Canton, Ohio, where 65 out of 490 female students are... well... in a family way.

But the absolute coup de grace to this story is something everyone I have seen cover it thus far has missed!

Are you ready for this?

What do you think the nickname is for the Timken High School sports teams?

Go on, take a guess!

No... it couldn't be! It's just not possible!

But, alas, it really and truly is...

The Timken Trojans!

And now, as Paul Harvey would say, you know the rest of the story!

Yes, folks, sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction!
