Here along the South Jersey coast, from about Long Beach Island (just above Atlantic City) south to Cape May, you are bound to hear the locals use a slang term for tourists...shoobies. The story goes that in the late 1800's the first daytrippers to take the new train service to the shore would pack their box-lunch in a shoebox, thus they were dubbed shoobies. Whatever the connotation then, this term, today, is used with a tone of ridicule and disparagement for the stereotypical paraphernalia-laden tourists (daytrippers the worst!) who typically drive the wrong way down one-way streets and stop to ask where the ocean is when they're 2 blocks from the beach (gee, see the WATER!!!?) We love 'em, can't you tell? And, seeing that we are now in the crux of the season for the shoobies' annual descent upon us, I was wondering if any other folks across the country or the world had their own local terms of "endearment" for tourists? Shoobie, shoobie, do!
