What is Space Tractor?

Born from the ashes of Keytarded and Hell Toupee, Space Tractor is both obnoxious and whimsical, backwoods and futuristic. After finishing the season as King Losers as Hell Toupee, Keytarded went on to take three-time world champs Danger Moustache out of contention during the first game of the 2006 playoffs. This year? The keytar and megaphone remain, but ex-Commish Sarah does not.

What is a Space Tractor? This spacecraft, proposed by scientists at NASA, would be launched into space to nudge planet-threatening asteroids off course.

It's also worth noting that Leningrad Cowboys have a song called Space Tractor. Strangely, the Leningrad Cowboys are not from Russia, but from Finland, not unlike another Nordic band with a misdirecting name: I'm From Barcelona (who are from Sweden). Is "Space Tractor" by the Leningrad Cowboys the Space Tractor theme song? No. No, it is not.
