He received the name ''The Phantom Orange Shirt Guy'' after a [[Petpage]] dedicated to [http://www.neopets.com/sitespotlight.phtml?place=423 Neopets Oddities]' won the [[Site Spotlight]]. The Petpage listed many of his Easter egg appearances, and wondered who he was. The name is based on the fact that he was almost always pictured in an orange shirt, and left very little evidence of himself, other than the brief appearances. | He received the name ''The Phantom Orange Shirt Guy'' after a [[Petpage]] dedicated to [http://www.neopets.com/sitespotlight.phtml?place=423 Neopets Oddities]' won the [[Site Spotlight]].
