The Tunnel is how Coloradoans refer to the Eisenhower Tunnel, the highest vehicular tunnel in the world. It carries I-70 through the Continental Divide and through to the killer powder on the other side.
Usually used when talking about how long it's going to be until you shred the gnar.

"How long til we get to Vail, man? I can't wait to rip with my new board."
"At least an hour, we're not even to The Tunnel yet. Better light that blunt now."

Get the In The Tunnel mug.Definition 1:
A slang phrase uttered when you are late and while driving to meet friends or a group of people. Blaming the traffic conditions going into the tunnel or inside the tunnel for your tardiness. The phrase indicates that you are on your way and will be there shortly once the traffic subsides.
In reality, you are no where near the tunnel, probably have not left your home yet and want the people you are meeting to wait because they actually think that you are unintentionally delayed and on your way.
Definition 2:
Receiving a cellular phone call and the caller is requesting a favor from you, expressing a boring story and/or wants to hang out. Uttering this phrase is an internationally acceptable excuse to use when you have no intentions on listening, meeting, or dealing with the caller and want to immediately end the call because of the poor cellular phone reception in tunnels.
