When I worked in LA County, we had one we frequently used:

LHP 2.2 - Larry H. Parker got me 2.2 million dollars.

Larry H. Parker was a local injury lawyer that advertised on t.v. One of his "clients" was a man who would state; "Larry H. Parker got me 2.2 million dollars".

This term is used to describe the pt that is ambulatory on scene with no c/c until the ambulance arrives. Then, they have sudden neck/back pain and proceed to loudly proclaim they are going to sue.
