I've never gotten an answer to that. I can think of only two explanations for why a man would have that nickname, and neither one is particularly child-friendly. So does anyone know?

Yes, I do.. Humpy Wheeler gets his nickname from his father. Once his dad caught him smoking cigarettes when he was a young kid and they just happen to be CAMEL brand. This is where he got the nickname Humpy, odd enough. Growing up through high school, college football, and then racing, the name "Humpy" has stuck with him. I was looking for a source site and found one so view the site below for reference to this. Hope this helps!

Because "Like a rabbit" Wheeler just doesn't sound as cool.

He's from the South, nicknames don't have to make sense down here.

He "Humpys" everything in sight.

Because of what the FRANCE family does to him.

Because you can't say "aszhole" on TV
