About Tripper

My name is Tripper. You may say, “Wow what a weird name” but it really isn’t. I am the third generation of my real name. My parents decided that it too hard to call two people in the same household, my dad and I, the same name so I got my name changed to Tripper. Why Tripper you may ask? Well the first part, which is tri-, means three or in this case third. Just like triangle which has three sides and triceratopses which has three horns. The rest of my name, -pper, doesn’t mean anything. It is just the end of the name. So that is how I got my name.
Now here is some fun facts about me. I play basketball and lacrosse for my school and I enjoy watching sports on TV and in person. I go to many Ohio State football games and many Toledo basketball games. On Saturday, you can usually find me down in my basement, aka: the cave, watching college football games.
I am an average student and I do reasonably well on tests and quizzes. My favorite subject is anything related to history because I am good with names and dates. I have a dog named Jet who just joined our family. He is all black and he is very small. It’s weird that we always pick small dogs even though my whole family is tall. He is often stepped on and kicked because he is so small.
All in all, I enjoy playing sports and doing decent in school. I like playing with my dog and hanging out with my family and friends.
