A small town in Eastern Massachusetts where nothing happens. Ever. It is the home of Nancy Kerrigan, the biggest whiny-ass bitch who ever lived, and to Devin McDermott, the greatest tennis player that ever lived. Devin is also known for his ability to Quelf on his opponents. see Quelf. It's school athletics system is part of the Middlesex league, and it's football team has never won a game. Ever. It has a good soccer team, although it doesn't matter because soccer isn't a sport. Most tough guys that wear FUBU clothes are usually big shit until you point out they're from Stoneham. Stoneham's economy also sucks pig. It had a chance to get mad dough by builing a movie theater in the square, but instead built one of those stupid theaters with a stage that people act on. Dumb. It is a town where they built 3 schools, naming them South School, East School, Central School, and then named the next one Robin Hood School, completely destroying the pattern, not to mention naming a school after a fictionary theif. Again quite dumb. It is not a complete tragedy of a town because of its tennis courts, which boast a large upgrade to the town. Despite having many sports fans to sports that aren't sports i.e. hockey, Stoneham is the stronghold of Red Sox Nation, because the Red Sox are the coolest team in baseball. It is also the home of Yao Ming. Well, no, but Yao Ming still kicks ass.
"Yo dawg, mack out these new gangsta kicks nigga!"
"Chill out dude, you come from Stoneham."

Coloquially known as "New Charlestown," due to the large number of middle-class people from that neighborhood who moved 8 miles north when Charlestown became a yuppie stronghold. Although most South Boston residents head to the South Shore when they move out of the city, some have headed north to Stoneham.
Stoneham has the highest percentage of Irish-Americans of any town in the country. Loyalty to the IRAis such that a BBCreporter visiting the town in 1994, shortly after Nancy Kerrigan's injury by her thug-rival, Tonya Harding, was insulted verbally and threatened with bodily harm. Eventually, the Massachusetts State Police escorted the BBC Reporter on his rounds in Stoneham.
