hoop-skirt

A huge broad funnel-shaped hopper-like device that's designed to fit down over-top of a basketball hoop, and to catch virtually all the shots so that they'll go through the hoop.
A standard hoop-skirt is made from heavy canvas or other thick easily-visible material, and is just a novelty/gag item that's intended to merely cause observers to snicker and roll their eyes as they watch the players score a hoop almost every time (similar to when a backyard jokester uses lengths of stove-pipe for guiding the ball when playing croquet). "Specialty" or "stealth" models of hoop-skirt are available, too, though --- they are made from ultra-transparent and non-reflective material in order to be virtually undetectable, and can be used to help "level the playing field" during actual team-competition games; they allow the less-capable/practiced side to increase their chances of beating --- or at least scoring a lot closer to --- their better-skilled opponents.

one who plays dress-up on the weekends with mommy and daddy's money. they usually gather in groups and dress in old garb to mimic people who have died who actually had lives that these losers are obviously jealous of. They prance around as though they are actually important, all the while, they are not, only hoopskirt ho's.
Those girls only wish they lived in the 1800's, the are obviously just hoopskirt ho's.
