How did Legs Diamond get his nickname?
Philadelphia-born John T. Noland (1896-1931) earned it early in his career.
As a teenager, he joined a gang called the Hudson Dusters, which stole packages from the backs of trucks.
For his ability to dodge police in his efforts, he was nicknamed Legs.
Diamond was one of his chosen surnames.
