Gooner means "Porn Addict" in the United States, but "Arsenal Supporter" in England. Read on to avoid embarrassing confusion!In the United States, the term "gooner" is mainly used to refer to someone who is addicted to online porn. Unfortunately, for supporters of Arsenal Football Club (a soccer team based in London, that plays in the English Premier League), gooner is proudly used as an affectionate play on the club's nickname "The Gunners." This difference in usage could lead unwary tourists into embarrassing situations. For example:
- Londoner: I'm going to see the Gooners thrash United on Wednesday. Do you want a ticket?
- New Yorker: That sounds kinky. Count me in!
Arsenal's nickname "The Gunners" is a reference to the cannon on the club crest, which represents the armament factory where the club's founders were employed.
