The Second City Saints
 

Even though I don't give a damn about any of these freaks, I have a real need to know how they got their name. Someone help.

Well Chicago is known as "the Second City" and while they were in ROH they followed the code of honor so they viewed themselves as Saints. So I believe that is where you get Second City Saints from.

Gotcha. Thanks.

So what city came in first?

Chicago is commonly referred to as the second city, because the original city burned to the ground in the Great Chicago Fire.

that's not it. it's the second city because it is historically the second largest urban area in the united states behind new york. not true anymore, but the nickname still stands.

although that fire thing makes sense, too.
