What is a "Hoople"?

[Lott's Bandana]

I'd ask Mott, but I can't find him.

I dunno, but Bowie's way better. And he ought to be...he wrote the song.

yeah, Bowie "gave" them the song since he was a fan of Mott (Ian Hunter)...and the Hoop had put out a couple records that no one was buying.

Mick Ralphs of Bad Company was in Mott the Hoople as well.

I think a hoople is someone who gets kicked in the head when they're twenty five.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

A Hoople is one who was chastized in the HBO series "Deadwood". Bumbling idiots referred to as "Hoopleheads" by Al Swearingen.

[SCOUT]

I believe that is spelled "Hoopla."

It's how I pronounced "Heupel" before I heard it spoken.
