I always tell people it's named after that problems they had when colonists first settled the natives would kill first inhabitants and hang their brains from trees as a warning to keep others out...... obviously not true, it's named after Braintree Essex in England (which is named for walnut trees that look like little brains hanging from trees) but that story just isn't cool enough.

Talk to people from Braintree and you will see it's an oxymoron
