The Beginning
It all started when i was just a spermicide inside my momma...No, Wait. That's too far back. I'm sorry, did you need something? Oh. Yeah. My story. It all started the summer after I graduated high school [est date: August 1999] and Iwas freaking out on whether I was going to yet another art school or just get a low-down simple job, when I saw that my local comic book shop [More like sportcard shop, but they had comics] changed their name. I assumed that it was just a name change, when I look inside [somewhat freaking out since I owed them 50+ dollars for a comic subscription from back when i was 13...] and saw what was the pinnacle of my contribution to the store. Back then, I knew a couple guys that used to go there when I was in high school [Jaco, come on by sometime. Got anything on where Bobby is??] and just asked the big guy there [Evidently, Mike, the owner] for a app. Next day, I ended up getting the job, due to my basic expertise of Pokemon Gameplay [I still curse myself to this day for having that knowledge.] After a short while, i was introduced to what were soon to be my best "mentors", Scott and 'Tommy'. Tommy was the cool-calm edged person who used to whine about things like Type I and Type II a lot. No offense to the latter, but it was funny to hear my first personal opinion in regards to a game that has been there for a long time. Also, there was Scott, a [i think i'm gonna get this wrong] "Pre-Grunge", "Post-Heavy Metal" kinda guy. This guy was calm and open to just about any freakin idea you could ever think of. And he knew his Magic good, as he was able to get one of our customers vast knowledge on Type I stuff. [Side Note--This was given to a 13 year old boy who was considered a fast learner...he knows over a year's worth of MtG stuff, and was able to 'get it' within 4 months!!!!]
The Good Part

While I shortly knew Tommy, it was one day that he kept calling me "Beecicchi" [Note: Not the correct spelling of the Real Tony B...I give NO offense whatsoever by using your credit where it is due. And I mean that with all due respect.] He actually confused me with one of his friends. Some of our customers spread the word during tournaments and regular days, and soon after, the name sticks up until now.

The Fact
Name: Tony Hernandez
Alias: Tony Beecicchi
 

And that's pretty much the basic story of where the name came from, also with the position of being the nice guy of the place that is Wild Card.

Oh, yeah, and I made that site, too. Note the background on both this site and the other one.

Yeah...that's the ticket.
