A fight on a fight card that garners significant attention from the general fight community because its back story imbues it with a value that generally overshadows the co-main and main event. This fight is usually slotted away from the co-main and main event slots but does not necessarily mean it is not the co-main or main event. It is the fight people want to see regardless of what else is on the card.
This phrase originates from The MMA Hour, first coined by journalist Ariel Helwani
Ariel Helwani: "Volkanovski vs Ortega is going to be insane, but let's be honest, the Nick Diaz vs. Robby Lawler rematch is the People's Main Event"

An unfortunate happening or an unexpected disappointment that takes away from that which would have formed the base of your desired expectations. Derived from expecting to create a salad at a salad bar and finding that the lettuce is brown or wilted.
"Bill won a free vacation to Europe, but is ill and can't go"
"Man, that's some bad lettuce event"

When an event/outing is planned and seems a very good idea, until it goes wrong in the first 10 minutes.
Oh yeah... The J-Soc Event...

A large, crowded event during which it is impossible to avoid rubbing your buttocks against another person's body. This is due to the large number of people and lack of personal space.
Concerts, festivals/carnivals, crowded nightclubs, raves, circuit parties and busy shopping days are all considered butt-rub events.

The Shoe Event Horizon is an economic theory that draws a correlation between the level of economic (and emotional) depression of a society and the number of shoe shops the society has.
The theory is summarized as such: as a society sinks into depression, the people of the society need to cheer themselves up by buying themselves gifts. This is usually done through the purchase of shoes. As more money is spent on shoes, more shoe shops are built, and the quality of the shoes begins to diminish. This makes people buy more shoes.
The above turns into a vicious cycle, the end result being that other industries begin to falter.
Eventually the titular Shoe Event Horizon is reached, where the only type of store economically viable to build is a shoe shop. At this point, society ceases to function, and the economy collapses, sending a world into ruin.
The population of the planet Brontitall was forced to evolve into bird-like creatures in order to survive the result of the shoe event horizon.

Was a massive battle during the caveman era. Not talked about bc history teaches are scared of the man himself. Foongus Shmoongus, son of Bungus Ungus. He fought in the war and never lost a battle. The war started bc Fulongus Shmongus owd Foongus a lot of money in a gamble, but he said, "You suck lmao!" This pissed off Foongus, so he kiiled Fulongus Shmongus, thus starting the war.
Jamarion: Have you heard of the Ooga Booga Event?
Quangle Wingle Wongle: No. What is it?
Jamarion: "Tells the whole story."
Quangle Wingle Wongle: Wow! That's really cool.
Jamarion: Ikr, I found it out by looking it up on the Urban Dictionary, the most trusted dictionary for any sort of research.

Sorry, it took so long to get back to you. It was kind of a crazy week and once your email slipped below the event horizon I completely spaced.
