The Curse of the Bambino was a superstition cited as a reason for the failure of the Boston Red Sox baseball team to win the World Series in the 86-year period from 1918 to 2004. While some fans took the curse seriously, most used the expression in a tongue-in-cheek manner.
The curse was said to have begun after the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth, sometimes called The Bambino, to the New York Yankees in the off-season of 1919-1920. Before that point, the Red Sox had been one of the most successful professional baseball franchises, winning the first World Series and amassing five World Series titles. After the sale they went without a title for decades, as the previously lackluster Yankees became one of the most successful franchises in North American professional sports.

The "Curse of the Bambino" is an excuse that the Red Sox use because they don't wanna admit they just suck

Get the Curse of the Bambino mug.A term used for lesbians, specifically 'back in the day' lesbians who were more interested in romantic interests, cuddles, hugs, and in general innocent affection with each other other than sexual interaction.
or
People who go through the entire movie of Bambi, think Bambi is a girl the entire time and just see Bambi as a lesbian after realizing 'she' has a relationship with a doe.

Honestly, Nicki was more interested in cuddling and hugs rather than the more... extreme stuff. I think she may be a Bambi Lesbian.

Get the my bambi mug.A bambi is a FRANKIEonPC channel meme referring to "new players" in games, who don't have a clue what's going on! Their name comes from Disney's Bambi, as they look like Bambi deer when he first stepped on ice! Bambies are NOT "noobs" - noobs are good players who abuse broken / overpowered game mechanics
