At Fryfogles tavern in those days, we used to order Old Vienna because it was the only cold beer in the place when it was busy, as it frequently was.  None of us ever got past the second one (we used to order two at a time, Fry's had notoriously slow service)  and, like every other group of guys who ever tried "O.V." we laid claim to being the ones who first dubbed it "Old Vagina".

The town saloon used to sponsor our Senior hockey team, so we'd get a couple of cases of OV after every game.  The first one always went down like water...

A roughneck on one of the rigs I worked on used to sing the "Just say O.V." jingle, and he wasn't goofing around or anything.  He just liked the song. He could also pack a drillpipe up the catwalk instead of waiting for the catline, and he once during a tearout undid the BOP bolts under water instead of bailing out the sump.

 

Then there was this other roughneck who the others nicknamed "Braindead..."
