Throw a Benny (Bennie)

To lose ones temper in a fit of uncontrollable rage.
Came from the murder of a person with the family name of Bennie killed in Corsham Wilshire on the 12th June 1982.

Very sad story indeed, I always take a moment when walking past the house on Priory Street.

It didn’t take long until the kids in my school started saying ” Throw a Benny (Bennie) ” axtually spelled ”Bennie” as that was the family name.
Throw meaning ”to do or act in a certain way” in local slang.

That’s proper benny

When you do something so stupid it’s similar to a Benny Hill sketch

Look at the geezer running across the farmers field to get his golf ball. That’s proper Benny!

Pop a benny

Breaking a one hundred dollar bill, especially if you are only spending a small amount

Yo I don’t have any cash, I need to pop a Benny

Fall Ball Benny

Exuding an enormous amount of confidence and swag playing baseball, especially with batting and hitting.

He was in a slump but then he activated Fall Ball Benny mode and crushed the ball to the outfield.
