An old school southern redneck hillbilly term for a wishbone or Furcula, a fork-shaped bone in birds. The bone in roast bird such as a turkey or chicken that is considered lucky to play tug-of-war over at the dinner table. The bone said to bring good luck to the person whose half is bigger when it is broken apart.
