Name: Joe Bandy Jr.

Age: 90

Hometown: Nashville, Tennessee

Did you know?: Bandywood Drive in Nashville is named after his family.

"There was a fellow that worked in my dad's office named Woodcock, C.C. Woodcock. And one day he came in and said, 'Joe, I've got a problem. I'm trying to develop that property that I own and the city has already turned down three names for the street, and I've got to get a name for the street.' And my dad thought a minute - so he tells me - and said, 'name it after us: Bandywood.' And that's how it came about."
