Another poor choice of nickname... maded-up names like this is not my preference... wish they would pick a name related to the locale.
Wichita is known as "Cowtown"... it was a railroad town for the Texas cattle ranchers... part of the Chisholm Trail.
Later it was "The Air Capitol of the World" with a huge aircraft industry.
Thanks to Wikipedia:
Defunct professional teams which used to play in Wichita include the Wichita Aeros and Wichita Wranglers baseball teams... also the Wichita Wings indoor soccer team.
