Dale Earnhardt, a NASCAR driver with a very impressive moustache, who died in 2001. Immortalized by Wal Mart employees, wife-beater collectors, and trailer dwelling folk the world over, his full name was shortened to the one
word "Dale", in the same way as "Pele", "MJ", or "Larry the Cable
Guy" has been in the past. Also known as the intimidator, due to a combination of his willingness to ram into people, and for said impressive moustache.
Said supporters are easily spotted as they
will generally have a sticker showing his number 3 with angel wings sticking out of it. Another form of the
word, "Daaaaaaaaale!" is often uttered by
sad lonely
men in country bars "down south".
Chap one: "I say, you appear to be rather
depressed. Would you like to talk about what's making you so sad?"
Chap two, crying: "Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale!"
Chap one: "I do enjoy a good
car race, but these chaps
don't seem to know how to turn right."
Chap two: "Y'know who could? Dale. Git R done, boogity boogity, boogity!"
