Go Grease Lightning! The Best Facts About The Film

Almost not the T-birds

When producers were thinking of names to call Danny Zuko’s group of friends, it took a while to come up with the name as we know them today, the T-birds. Not only was the name emblazed on their matching leather jackets, but it was what Rydell High knew them as. One of the names that were suggested prior to this was The Burger Palace Boys.

The name was paying homage to the place they hung out at the most. However, it sounds a bit silly when you think about it and T-birds has a much better ring to it.
