the big dance 

1) the NCAA basketball tournament
2) the school event that made your little sweatpants-and-Vanilla-Ice-T-shirt-wearing bitch ass all nervous in junior high

1) "Hell yeah...we're going to the big dance! Money!"
2) "Ummm...Susie...uhhh...my name's Freddy and I sit behind you in english 5th period...uhhh...so I was just wondering...uhhh..."
"No."
"Uhhh...but...you know...I."
"No I won't go to the big dance with you. Eat a fat dick, loser."
