This name is given to kids that are normally very special, pretty high up on the spectrum. This gender is very crazy sometimes and quite dangerous if you approach them in the wrong way. In their Natural habitat, they put up oneleg and start clapping and making clicking noises (just like the Africans). This is a way of their mating call. Once a Sam Bata is in a bad mood, he can start shouting "oof". This is a very bad situation, if within a 20-yard radius you will be ass fucked.
Normal person: hey sam
Sam : hey *clicks*
N P : okay
