Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
One late night, a boy was writing a boring report about Spartacus for school. As the night went on, he became more tired. He tried his best to stay awake, but he drifted off to dream land. There, he dreamed of a brightly colored city with colorful characters. Suddenly, a blue blur had appeared before him. It turned out to be a man with his back facing the boy. The man said, "Hi! I'm S-". The boy woke up, it was morning. He looked at the end of his report, and noticed something odd. He read aloud, "That was the tale of Sportacus..."*Thanks to Ultra Magnus for Nindanjoe. -
Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
^Right. It's a sports-oriented play on the name of the famous Roman gladiator, Spartacus. It's supposed to say that he's a great hero who loves to play sports.
Okay, semi-related trivia time. The character's name in the original Icelandic version is Iprotalfurin (or something similar, probably with accents that I can't spell) which means something like 'sports elf', because the character was in fact an elf with strange magic in his early evolution. Thus, the joke in 'Sportacus Who' when Robbie calls him 'the blue elf' and Sportacus gets all offended.
I seriously need a new sig. Will try Photoshop later.Note

There was a thing in the paper the other day about an ice cream van that was found parked at the side of a road.Originally posted by Alpaca
The police were called to investigate, and when they opened the back they found the driver dead on the floor covered in flakes and sprinkles and three flavours of syrup.
They say he topped himself.
(You may need this link to understand that one.)
And that's the origin of Sportacus' name.Originally posted by Julianna Rose OfficialNote

It's รรพrรณttaรกlfurinn. I think the prefix รญรพrรณtta- means athletic; รกlfurinn being "the elf".Originally posted by ZokitaYarr harr fiddle-de-de, being a

Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
I was under the impression that the definite article was just -inn rather than -urinn. Nouns ending in -ur are usually masculine, so that decides which form of the definite article to use.Originally posted by crosis52Yarr harr fiddle-de-de, being a is all right with me!

Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
That would be so wierd.....cause sportacus is actually steph's father. Should totally have a scene with sportacus dying with a meltdown and Steph tries to help him but can't...then there's a 'Steph, i am your father' scene...

Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
As far as I remember that's all wrong. In this scene Sportacus instead of dying beats Stephanie to a pulp for being lazy and cuts her hand off with a tennis racket - before telling her that he's her father and inviting her to join the dark side of the sports.Originally posted by Incommodo...then there's a 'Steph, i am your father' scene...

It's true.Originally posted by RacoonOriginally posted by sportafake
It's damn true.
On the old official LazyTown site, they had bios for all the characters.
It said that Sporty's real name was Alex Busybody, and that he was indeed Bessie's son.
However, a lot (like, practically all) of the stuff mentioned in those bios has been dropped from the official canon, so feel free to disregard.
Worth a read, though, if you can track them down.
Maybe somebody else will find it for you, because I can't be arsed.

Re: What is the history of the name"Sportacus"?
Sportacus has his own page on http://www.internationalhero.co.uk where he's listed as Alex Busybody, although as they manage to misspell "Robbie" numerous times on the same page, I'm figuring that the site's owners are not avid LT fans, so I'd take the information with a pinch of salt.Yarr harr fiddle-de-de, being a is all right with me!
