The impending doom of complacency that one feels upon entering Akron, Ohio. Symptoms include, but are not limited to: immediately feeling like you are morbidly obese and have mobility issues, eating almost nothing but all-American food (e.g., pizza, hot dogs, and hamburgers), thinking that Highland Square is the best or worst neighborhood ever, taking your minor league baseball team way too seriously, reveling the Goodyear/Firestone "glory days," and acting like one of the many sad and unfortunate people who use the public transportation system.
After spending just a few days in Akron, you too will develop the the telltale symptoms of Akron-itis.

Get the Fatty From Akron mug.The University of Akron is a public university in downtown Akron, Ohio with nearly 30,000 students. Although not the most well-known or prestigious university out there, it does have some highly nationally ranked programs (the Industrial/Organizational Psychology graduate program, the College of Business Administration, the College of Engineering, and The College of Polymer Science and Polymer Engineering). It is also home to the Archives of the History of American Psychology (which contains materials from some of psychology's most famous experiments, like Milgram's shock experiments) and the 2010 Division 1 National Champion soccer team.
Although I'm sure this reads like an advertisement, that's definitely not the intent. I'm just a current student who strongly disagrees that this is "the shittiest excuse for a school ever created". The school's not perfect (parking sucks--although it's improved slightly with the opening of the newest parking deck, they do have some douchetastic professors, etc), but the only other urbandictionary entry for the school as of this writing is pretty much a load of shit.

Get the The Akron Hammer mug.The "new and improved" nickname for LeBron James that is apparently "TAKING THE U.S.A. BY STORM." The "Akron" part of the name is because of the simple fact that LeBron James hails from the mean streets of Akron, Ohio. The "hammer" part of the nickname serves no purpose. It could just serve the purpose of giving Michelle Beadle an excuse to fantasize about getting hammered in the ass by LeBron James.
Nobody knows where this definition first came into existence but Michelle Beadle will continue to use this word in an unchallenged manner on SportsNation. Never fear though Michelle will eventually stop using this word once she realizes that she has no chance of getting LeBron on her and she will soon begin to hate him..just like Tom Brady whom she now despises for "no apparent reason."
The only time you would ever use this word is if you wanted to sound like a complete and utter moron.
