The lollipop was named after one of the most famous racehorses in the early 1900's, Lolly Pop. I found this random fact on a Snapple lid and I was like "Hey, that sounds like our clan" so like the geek that I am I posted it on our forum... I don't even know if anyone is going to see this but if you do, shoot me some random comment and you will be my new favorite person.
