Definitions For Hoser

Noun

Etymology

From hose + er. The Canadian senses originally derive from hose + + to siphon gasoline from automobile gas tanks, in reference to farmers who siphoned gas from farming vehicles; they were later reinforced by use to describe the players on the losing side of a game of shinny or hockey, who were required to hose down the rink to return it to a smooth state, and ultimately popularized in the 1980s by a sketch on the television show SCTV, in which Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas played Bob and Doug McKenzie, a pair of hosers.
