When two people take a mattress off a bed(usually in a dorm hallway),hold it in front of them holding it by the sides or the back and get a big distance between them. Then, they run and charge into each other and whoever stays standing is the winner.A commonly known late-night college activity.
I grabbed my mattress and ran at Cody after I heard we were mattress jousting.

Yes, it is a game played in college frat parties but has nothing to do with actual jousting. It is the act of two male parteners who are clearly intoxicated partaking in the act of sword fighting (this is where the jousting comes from) with their wangs on a bed (mattress).

It is commonly used as a joke to people who are clearly uninformed about the slang term.
Frat boy: Hey, Jason, do you want to go mattress jousting later on tonight?
Jason: No, I'm not gay
Frat Boy: I am
