Half Back

What is Half Back?


1.

Term used by Mid-Atlantic state locals to describe a Northerner (aka "Yankee") who moves to Florida to escape the cold winters; only to find it is too hot and moves half way back up the coast to the mid Atlantic states (NC, SC, VA). Typically used in a derogitory manner as is Yankee in many parts of the South.

Wife: Joe and Marge just moved into the neighborhood. They used to live in New Jersey, but moved here from Florida.

Husband: Damn half backs, why don't they stay up North in the first place.
