Trivia / Tatanka

• Fake Nationality: He actually is of Native American descent, but his act is based on (offensive) stereotypes of a Great Plains warrior, while his actual descent is from the Lumbee people of the east coast. That's a bit like being Swedish, but playing an Italian mobster for your character just billed as "European". So even though he's really native, he's faking at the same time. Eventually this was averted, as he was adopted into the Oglala Sioux (AKA Lakota) tribe, from whose language his stage name derives.
