"During a cheerleading camp in Tennessee, some cheerleaders were directed by other members of the squad to perform lewd chants and wear outfits that did not include underwear."

When I was in consulting, one of my clients was named Richard Liss. But instead of going by Rich, Rick, Rico, Ricky, Richie, or any other totally acceptable nickname, he went by Dick. Every time he answered the phone with “Dick here”. His voicemail was, “you have reached the voicemail of Dick Liss...” 

I loved that man, for what he lacked in dick he made up for with balls.

When I worked at WTKA back in the late 90s, interviewed a pro golfer.  The conversation somehow moved to really good club pros and he name dropped Dick Tiddy.  The host at the time (Doug Karsch) had to mute our mics before we killed the interview with our laughter.

Here's a brief obit on Dick: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-2004-05-19-0405190184-story.html

I don't know what to be more upset about here.  The completely inappropriate behavior, or what I missed out on by not being a cheerleader?

This apparently happened during a retreat on Lake Cumberland, if you have ever been there you know everything described is about par for the course...
