Memphis Showboat

A man or woman that takes joy In fucking in public places, usually in plain site. You'll most often see the Memphis Showboat in public parks, Jack Pirtle's Chicken parking lots, or Picadilley Cafeteria buffet lines.
Look at those Memphis Showboats over there fucking on top of that statue of Robert E. Lee.

showboating 

1. To have a visibly exaggerated idea of ones own skills, talents, or abilities.
2. To exhibit a grotesque amount of undue and unfounded pride for a skill or ability which is actually mediocre.
Excellent examples of people who are really bad showboaters would be that 'Lord of the Dance' blockhead Michael Flatley, the ludicrously posturing Sarah Brightman and her bloated ego, and the Queen of the Showboaters, that swirling black hole of talentlessness herself - Celine Dion.
