A term used by law students and those in the legal profession to refer to large private firms in the US. These firms are typically located in NYC, Chicago, or Washington DC and have impressive multi-million dollar offices in skyscrapers, complete with full libraries that are rarely used. Many law students initially aspire to work for a Big Law firm.
The seduction:
> Six-figure salaries, as much as $150k right out of school
> Internship during school, which mostly involves a reduced workload with lavish lunches and trips to baseball games
> Company perks, like leased Beamers or season tickets to MLB or NBA games
The reality:
> 2500 to 3000 billable hours, which translates to 80-90 hour work weeks
> 7am-7pm five days a week, often half day on Saturday, so you don't have time to use your Knicks tickets anyway
> Over 33 percent drop-out rate among first-year associates, up to two-thirds quit by third year
> Lawyers have one of the highest rates of alcoholism and depression among all professions, and this is especially prevalent in big private law firms

Every now and then the cupcake wins, prompting a torrent of lulz on every NCAA internet forum. See Appalachian State vs. Michigan.
Vanderbilt is the SEC cupcake team.
Best football team in the SEC conference, and as proven in 2006 and 2008, best in the world. Always hated, often imitated, never duplicated.
God Himself supports the Florida Gators because the sky is Blue and the sun is Orange.
A Division I FBS athletic conference for college sports. Known for its obnoxious fan base, low scoring, unexciting style of play, disastrous trips to bowl games and generally playing second-fiddle to the SEC conference.
Person 1: Big Ten rocks!
Person 2: Yeah well then why in the past three years did they lose two football title games and one basketball title game to SEC teams?
Person 1: ...I don't know, you're right, Big Ten is overrated.

The 2006 Orange Bowl between Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno was also known as the Geriatric Bowl.
