    I only know “sports almanac” from BTTF2. And is “farmer’s tan” a common expression in the US? I don’t think I’ve ever encountered it.

      it refers to tan lines from wearing a t-shirt. A similar but different variation is a “trucker’s tan” which is very similar to a farmer’s tan except that it is unilateral, from one side being in the sun coming through the driver’s side window, and the other side mostly being shaded by the cabin. In the US, the tan occurs on the left, since that’s the driver’s side of a vehicle. This is a fascinating example of a trucker’s tan in the long term.
