Shampoo banana

Local term for the "twin cities" of Champaign and Urbana in Illinois. These two cities are usually just considered one area, but Champaign-Urbana sounds too formal, so some people just say this instead. People from anywhere else usually don't get it. These people often pronounce the S in Illinois as well.

Shampoo banana

a much better version of champaign urbana. only true townies and members of illini-nation are allowed to use this word. it has origins in 410 E Healey, the social circles of green street, and the elite socialites of Kams and Lion.
