Maroon

Term made famous by Bugs Bunny meaning a pushover, or one easily fooled.

A dope, fool, idiot, or nincompoop.

Unbelievably stupid person.

Might have been derived from moron: adding an extra letter "o" to moron meaning double-moron, thus a maroon.

Usually preceded by the words "what a"...

He thought he was eating chocolate ice cream but it was
vanilla with chocolate syrup--what a maroon!

He thought that wax fruit was real--what a maroon!

He fell in love with a stripper again--what a maroon!

maroon

A malapropism and favorite expression of Bugs Bunny, after outwitting Elmer Fudd. Usually uttered by Bugs this while walking away and wiping his hands in satisfaction. The joke of course is that Bugs mispronounces "moron."

Bugs: "What a maroon."

maroon

Used by Bugs Bunny as a term or derision. Possibly in reference to the 1925 Pottsville Maroons-even though they had the best record in the NFL that year, they were so dumb that they encroached on the area of another team and forfeited the NFL championship.

To be as stupid as a Maroon.
