1 definition by A Very Pissed Off Raccoon

Coon is an abbreviated term for racoon, majorly derived from the word 'coonhound'. Coons are small nocturnal carnivores (Procyon lotor) of North America that are chiefly grey, they have black masks and bushy ringed tails. They live chiefly in trees, and have a varied diet including small animals, fruits, and nuts.

This is often perceived as a derogatory term for black people, however, the word is completely innocent as long as you are talking about the small, furry animal.
I haven't heard that in a coon's age.
