Hobo Games

n. Triennial international sporting event involving homeless folks, people between income sources, and non-professional athletes. Opening soupcans with a rock, starting a fire from scratch, outrunning authorities, constructing shelters and clothing from sticks and plastic sheeting are but some of the featured events. Corporate and government sponsorship are, of course, prohibited, and betting is mandatory. Red Deer, Canada, is the permanent site for the HG.

……………………………
Wanna head over to Red Deer for the Hobo Games? We could pick up some well-sorted gravel while we are there and maybe look for dinosaur bones in the creek, or Hobo bones, which are more plentiful.

No. I think I’ll pass. Again.

ruggedly handsome hobo

Definition: Ruggedly handsome hobo
Ruggedly handsome hobo (noun phrase)
An informal English expression that describes a homeless man (hobo) who, despite his unkempt, dirty, or disheveled appearance (messy hair, beard, worn and tattered clothes), possesses a natural, masculine physical attractiveness — sharp facial features, expressive eyes, confident posture — that makes him appear charismatic, cool, or even model-like.
The word “ruggedly” suggests a rough, unpolished kind of handsomeness associated with a tough, outdoor lifestyle. “Handsome” means attractive, and “hobo” is an older American term (somewhat romanticized) for a homeless person, vagabond, or itinerant beggar.
The phrase is often used with a tone of admiration or ironic humor, highlighting the contrast between extreme poverty/neglect and obvious physical appeal.
3 example sentences:

“When photos of that bearded guy sleeping on the subway bench went viral, everyone started calling him the ruggedly handsome hobo of New York – he looked like he could walk straight onto a fashion runway.”
“The internet fell in love with another ruggedly handsome hobo last week: long messy hair, torn jacket, but those piercing blue eyes and sharp jawline made him instantly famous.”
“Brother Sharp from China is the original ruggedly handsome hobo – back in 2010, pictures of him strutting down the street in layered rags turned him into an overnight fashion icon.”
