Niedermeyer; German: distinguishing name for a farmer (see Meyer ) in a low-lying location (Middle High German nider(e))
i.e. Mud Farmer
"Flying Niedermeyers" is a colloquial expression from 13th century Denmark, similar in intent to the Low English phrase "when pigs can fly"
phrase appeared again during the Thirty Years War(1618-1648) to refer to the Dutch, which, roughly translated, means 'Crazy Swamp Bastards'
It is a name with a long and storied history, but it carries with it a hint of impropriety, in large part due to the Nashville Noodle Incident of 1964. Fred 'Sky King' Niedermeyer was acquitted of all charges(several witnesses went missing), but the grainy video clips of the unsavory event are still circulating on the internet.
Regional sponsors objected to naming a prestigious GLB2 franchise after such a controversial figure, so the owner graciously agreed to call them 'The Vagrant Murder Hobos' instead, and the objections were withdrawn.
