In basketball, after a missed shot by your team, all the players on your team gets back on defense except one. After your team gets a stop, causes a turnover, or a made basket, a team member quickly throws a full-court pass to the player who didn't get back for an easy bucket before the opposing team can recover.

Get the Snowbirding mug.A dreadful, blashemous season that starts around October and ends around April where elderly folk from northern states (which are known as snowbirds) come down to Florida, Arizona, Texas, anywhere with warm winters- usually it's Florida and Arizona that takes this godforsaken heat- because they hate the cold even though most have lived with it through all their 65+ years of age.
A dangerous, frightening season where the chances of causing a car accident increases tenfold. Snowbirds can easily spotted by their huge bulky polluting vehicles with blindspots as their friends going 40 on a 75mph highway in the middle of the dividing line in a lane. The causes of crashing are due to poor sight, terrible sense of location, and/or Alsheimers taking it's toll.
An annoying, erritating season where snowbirds flock to cheap diners like Denny's and Ihop 24/7- complaining about the food- and to grocery stores to buy only 2-5 pounds of food- complaing about the coupons, making sure that buying food anywhere will be a living HELL. Snowbirds are the worst neighbors that could ever exist. These "people" contantly call the police over the slightest distrubance (young folk and lamily loitering at a driveway, band practice in garage even WITH the door firmly closed, you name it); it's a proven fact. A FBI-wanted serial killer makes a better neighbor than these pests.
The only way to isolate yourself from this six month long, day-and-night nightmare is three things:
college
spring break
marde grau

~ Oh SHIT! Snowbird season is here! Quick! Grab a shotgun, beer, and a bunch of partiers! WE GONNA BE BUSY THIS WINTER!
But seriously, when I'm 70 years old in the year 2053, I'm fucking moving to somewhere between Washington and Maine and deal with the winter there. I don't what to be mistaken as and treated like one of these vermin.

A seasonal infestation of Yankees (as well as Midwesterners and Canadians) in sunny warm states in the South such as Florida (and also out West in Arizona). A snowbird is an elderly Yankee that migrates down to the South to winter when their natural habitat of New York, Ohio, or Michigan is too cold for them. Their migration begins in early September and lasts until April.
You can spot a snowbird by it’s white or graying hair color (or sometimes light blue or orange form a dye job gone bad), it’s pastel colored clothes, use of sweaters, socks in sandals or white tennis shoes, dark colored over sized sun glasses, and of course it’s irritating Yankee accent. They tend to drive over sized gas guzzling cars such as Lincolns and Cadillac’s because they are retired and have the money to spend.
Typically known to drive well under the normal speed in traffic, (about 35 MPH below and in the passing lane) and prone to rubbernecking therefore making places such as Florida the traffic accident capital of the US. Other than making driving conditions terrible for Native Floridians and other Southerners, snowbirds also infest restaurants, post offices, stores, doctor’s office’s by the droves making it next to impossible to get it during the winter months. They in turn complain about how crowed it is and how they have to wait in line.
Even though tourist traps love snowbirds because of the revenue they bring, most people who are native to the states the snowbirds visit hate them with a passion and wish they’d go home.

Get the snowbia mug.Arizonan slang (used mainly in Tucson and Sahuarita) meaning eldery people that come into Arizona in October or November from the Northern States because it's getting cold. They leave in May-July due to heat waves. They are hated by Native Arizonans due to them being ignorant, selfish, and most importantly, slow.

Get the snowbell mug.A northern American that migrates to Florida during the months of October through April.
An elderly person who drives 1x10^25 too slow, and drives a huge, polluting SUV covered in war veteran stickers. And when they drive, their heads tend to disappear.
Someone who complains about the locals just because their lives are now obsolete and meaningless.
Someone who donates unfathomable amounts of money to funds that don't really need it (btw...thx).
