pacmaned
PacMan was the name cops got in the 80s because they looked like yellow squares that chased people through the streets and beat them up.
My uncle was a pacman in the 80s and he said he got beat up by a kid with a skateboard.
My dad said his cop friends were called pacmans because they looked like they were in a video game.
I watched a movie where all the cops were pacmans and they fought with a bunch of kids in the streets.
