Short for "Bandwagon." The Wagon refers to cheering for a specific sports team, often for sports gambling purposes. Cheering hard for a team can entail, getting more people "on the wagon," steaming the wagon, "throwing coal on the fire," and "pushing the wagon."

Caulk the wagon and float it

To take your time and be cautious when crossing rivers, but also not so cautious that you will only cross a river if there is a ferry present.

Originally a mindset used in the classic computer game The Oregon Trail, but can also be a way of life.
Don't be foolhardy and just try to ford the river. Take your time, be cautious, caulk the wagon and float it.
