Mustache?

Rambis Youth?

No mention of the informal fan group the 'Rambis Youth' during his time with the Lakers? Jascal ( talk) 03:43, 6 June 2011 (UTC) reply

Greek-American?

He was born in the US. I thought wiki generally only used hyphens for ex-pats like Stanley Kubrick or Igor Sikorsky. 141.156.187.235 ( talk) 05:11, 10 May 2019 (UTC) reply

I don't feel strongly about keeping "Greek" in the lead, but it is sourced that he acquired citizenship, and one could argue it's relevant that he was not a "foreign" player while playing in Greece.— Bagumba ( talk) 07:20, 10 May 2019 (UTC) reply

I'm adding this reference here on the Talk page since it was deemed not appropriate for the Kurt Rambis Wikipedia page (due to self-promotion concerns). I think it's nonetheless relevant to learning about Kurt Rambis!:

In 2022, the band "Rambis" (whose name was inspired by Kurt Rambis) released the song "Time To Rambis", which celebrates Kurt Rambis's grit, determination, and work ethic. The song is an up-tempo rocker that highlights the former basketball player's unique on-court appearance combined with his unmatched tenacity in lyrics such as: "His purple shorts may be too short, and his socks might be a little too high, but he works harder than any other man, a force of will that none can deny." The chorus turns "Rambis" into a verb meaning "work hard" and inspires the listener to push through adversity with fortitude and determination: "When it's time to show what you've got inside, your heart beats with pride, it's time to Rambis! / When it's late at night, and the deadline's near, put away your fear, it's time to Rambis!" -- Dpobrien66 ( talk) 17:58, 2 May 2022 (UTC) reply

A relevent guideline is MOS:POPCULT:

Cultural references about a subject should not be included simply because they exist...A source should cover the subject's cultural impact in some depth; it should not be a source that merely mentions the subject's appearance in a movie, song, television show, or other cultural item.
