Mad Anthony is worth a million in prizes

Probably the only Revolutionary War general to suffer metal-plate-in-the-head-induced epilepsy, Anthony Wayne is likely best known for having a ton of things named after him. At least twelve counties, twenty municipalities (including nearby Wayne, PA), one river and one national park are named for “Mad Anthony,” who earned his nickname either from his fiery personality and daring on the battlefield or from the aforementioned metal plate – used to repair a musket hole in his head – which caused him epileptic seizures and ‘foamy-mouth.’ Sources disagree on which.
