A poker term for having a pair of Aces, usually a pocket pair. All other letters on cards are consonants (K for King, Q for Queen and J for Jack) but the A for Ace is the only vowel.
It is the best pre-flop hand in Texas Hold'em.
Ace/Ace is also referred to as "pocket rockets," "weapons of mass destruction," "American Airlines," and "bullets."

The short stack under-the-gun shoved all of his chips in, and the guy on the button shoved as well. I peeked at my cards, saw vowels, and eagerly shoved all my chips in as well. How could I not go all-in with vowels there?

bro vowels

The chesty vowel sound made when emphasizing a word for masculine purposes. It resembles the deepening of vowels a drill instructor makes when saying "ATTENTION".

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
