Jambo

Jambo is Boy Scout slang for the National Boy Scout Jamboree that have been held at Fort A.P. Hill in Caroline County VA for decades. It's more or less a giant Charlie Foxtrot where diseases get passed easily because of poor sanitation (not STDs, stomach bugs and things like that). I know this because I went to one.
-NewScout: I can't wait to go to Jambo!! It's gonna be so much fun!!
-EagleScout: Good luck getting over the stomach bug you'll get on the second day there.

Shoot the rainbow

This is a term derived from the Skittles catchline "Taste the rainbow". To shoot the rainbow you must have Skittles-infused vodka and you must take consecutive shots of each of the 5 flavors (normally Skittles vodka requires separation of the different colors, otherwise you just get disgustingly sweet vodka). Some people use various color orders when shooting the rainbow but the most common order goes red (strawberry), orange (WTF do you think the flavor is if the thing's color is "orange"?), yellow (lemon), green (lime) and lastly purple (grape). Sometimes red and yellow are switched so that the order goes by color depth or some people just by their own taste.
The bartender last night said that they had made a lot of Skittles-infused vodka and recommended that we shoot the rainbow. He might as well have been selling crack since we all got 2 rounds of 5 shots and wanted more!

the rent

The Rent is a nickname for Rentschler Field, a stadium in East Hartford, CT.

The Rent is home to the UConn Huskies football team. During the summer the stadium holds concerts which are typically sold out. Famous acts who have performed at the Rent include The Rolling Stones, The Police and Bruce Springsteen. The stadium has also hosts major soccer matches but these matches have always been simply qualifying matches, not championship matches.

The stadium sits on and old Pratt & Whitney airfield strip and still has the original runway in place. Parking for the Rent goes up and down the runway and in some cases fans have to walk literally miles to get to the stadium. In 2007 Cabela's, an outdoor supplies company, opened up on the same P&W property.
Football fan: Hey, want to go the the UConn / Rutgers game this Saturday at the Rent?
Other fan: Sure, but that UConn / USF game 2 weeks ago was brutal! We walked the whole runway in a downpour!
