Never heard that, and I'm older than you. Been hearing Dago all my life. From the natives. Must be because I was raised in the east county where all the H.A.'s hung out.

I know a few people from San Francisco that say Frisco. It's the snooty natives who object to Frisco. For some folks it's just a figure of speech, not an insult.
