Not sure if serious. That's all that I ever heard them called. And in the 90's there were a LOT of balls at the old Box that made it to Married Student Housing. Nate Dunn hit a few that I remember.
The longest ball that I ever saw was actually a foul ball that Brad Wilkerson hit at the old Box that went just outside the right field foul pole and cleared Nicholson.

Matt Clark hit a line drive off the intimidator that was still rising...would have been on Nicholson.

The longest I saw Belle hit was in a regional against Jackson St. It landed on Nicholson in straight away center field

How about Mel Ott of the New York Giants when the Giants trained at ole Alex Box before it was named Alex Box?
Ott took lots of batting practice. Ole timers said he hit numerous balls into Nicholson Drive.
