Hunger Games 

1. The 'battle to the death' competition from the Hunger Games book trilogy by Suzanne Collins. The basic premiss is that all that is left of America is a wealthy 'Capitol' surrounded by the 12 'districts'. The Hunger Games see a male and female, teenage 'tribute' from each of the districts battle until only one survives.

2. The event itself as seen in the books and films. Also referred to as just 'the Games'.

3. Now also in use as a description for any fiercely competitive/violent event.
1. I love the Hunger Games books.

2. You should have seen the beauty pageant contestants backstage, it was like the Hunger Games in there!

3. When he and his siblings fall out, it's like he's holding the Hunger Games in his house.

I was starving in the woods and pretty bored, so I cranked out a few hunger busters. Everything worked out fine, don't tell anybody.
