Why Is New York City Called "The Big Apple"?
1.Best known today as Benny Goodman’s finest arranger, Fletcher Henderson was a great bandleader in his own right and probably the man who did most to put the “Big Apple” nickname into wide circulation.
2.A group dance called the Big Apple was popular in the era of the Shag and the Lindy Hop. A whimsical sign(below) still marks the site of the Big Apple club at W. 135th St. and Seventh Avenue.
3.Turf scribe Jack FitzGerald dubbed his long-running column “Around the Big Apple”; by his own account, he’d borrowed the term from “two dusky stable hands” overheard after a race at the Fair Grounds in New Orleans.
