CP3 and Harrison Barnes Learn Texas Slang!

[@dvs620]

CP3 is from North Carolina and played in New Orleans. Guarantee he's heard almost all of these.

[@kdbghost23]

New Orleans ain't Texas

[@dvs620]

@kdbghost23 Really? Texas isn't the South either and yet, some things translate. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@nomaderic]

You forgot the most important. He already played in texas when he was on the rockets

[@Saucingalot]

Dog North Carolina and Texas? What????

[@BPS270]

He played for the Rockets 🚀 too

[@hardakanyed]

from french perspective, it's always nice to expand my compendium of expression for the time i'll go to SA for a Spurs game

[@AZ23Chicago]

Same! We should plan a day for a bunch of worldwide Spurs fans to come support

[@ir0nfistalex]

‘Fixin to’ is literally just finna in modern terms 😂

[@nomaderic]

I've been saying finna all my life. I used to get in trouble for it at school lol

[@Ben-fn8wm]

The last one is from the old days when they actually delivered ice for your "refrigerator", the ice box kept your food good.

[@Jay-j9b1j]

Lived in SA my whole life never heard anyone say darn tootin except on TV.

[@teranmm]

Better be some Spanish in this

[@gregorydeleon8394]

The fact he was jus saying he learned darn tootin but used it perfectly in that sentence is crazy lol

[@Bigdih]

So crazy🤯🤯🤯

[@royramirez8038]

I need to see a part 2 of this and we can start with "Nombre shat up Go Spurs Go!"

[@ryanmartinez1703]

Never heard "ice box", south Texas for 27 years

[@terrancejohnson8017]

Cause its different in San Antonio I'm from San Antonio and used ice box I'm fixing to but normally is with blacks and whites so it's different

[@MarcusMullins-ec4rf]

Same lmao

[@newtontimclark6042]

My missisippi grandma would say ice box 🤷🏻‍♂️

Shoutout wooskie, good to see he's recovering and got his life together. Went from shooting guns to shooting hoops

[@moderatti]

Some of these are just general southern slang lol. Where’s the SA specific stuff?

[@xXXdaniel210xXx]

It says Texas slang not san antonio

[@imdbtruth]

CP3 already lived in Houston when he played with the Rockets, and Harrison already lived in Dallas when he played for the Mavericks.

[@frankiethefrog1752]

Yea this is rather dumb. Spurs media department obviously didn’t do their homework.

[@tairgreen9210]

This isn’t slang nobody’s walking around in 2024 saying darn tootin

[@GH-cd6oq]

not true

[@w.u.d4314]

We gon start in 2025 tho

[@ozneroll2132]

You’re darn tootin’

[@mjbankhead9063]

That’s what you think!

[@LordZevv]

"Ice Box" is called that because you literally had to buy huge blocks of ice and put it in an insulated conatiner to keep your food fresh longer.

[@whatsgrowingon]

Y'all forgot "nomtonbot". It means ... "Do you know what I am talking about". :

[@daniellee7014]

I want to see same for Houston and Mavericks legends learning Texas slangs, that will be comedy!!

[@faithinallthingsw4088]

I enjoyed this segment. You all should do a this or that segment: oven or microwave, soda or lemonade, coffee or juice, suit or sweat suit, cardio or weights, movie theater or home theater, beach or site seeing, pepsi or coke, moms home cooking smell or fresh laundry smell. Also superlatives segment: funniest teammate, best driver, worst driver, messiest locker, cleanist locker, which teammate is the most honest, quiet, talkative, has everyone back, thoughtful, serious, easy going. Which teammate could you go on a 36 hour road trip with?

[@michaelwordofa]

PART II PLEASE BUT WITH VICTOR!!!

[@victorsoliz3272]

Been in texas from michigan and this shit is craxking me up🤣💀

[@mjbankhead9063]

There are so many meanings to “Bless Your Heart” and I’m surprised “hose pipe” wasn’t included. I hope they do a part 2 😂

[@EmanuelFontenette]

When I saw “Texas slang” I didn’t imagine ANY of this, lmao

[@whome1636]

We need Wemby doing these accents!

[@ozneroll2132]

“I reckon’

[@Therealfakeshow]

I thought everyone said ice box I never called it anything other than ice box 😂

[@michaelbrady7635]

Bro… cp3 played in Houston for years…

[@DroneStrike1776]

But when you think about it, he's a pro athlete, one of the biggest names, I'm sure he doesn't get out much to actually see the culture. It's like Tom Brady, played in Foxboro, but lives in NYC. He's probably more familiar with NYC culture than he is with the greater Boston area.

[@teeayewhy5394]

This is Texas slang? Or just old sayings?

Ice box is from the 60-70's era when they literally put an ice block in it to keep the food cold

[@homerthompson416]

How you not gonna have ice house? First day when I moved to LA for school I asked my roommate if he wanted to come with me to the ice house and grab a Coke or something and he got a puzzled look and didn't know what in the world I was talking about.

I’m 20 years old, and I’ve lived in Central Texas my whole life. I’ve never heard anyone in Austin, San Antonio, San Marcos, Corpus Christi, Laredo, or Dallas (I’ve been there, Corpus, and Laredo a combined ten times) say “over yonder” in my life. Really my only time crossing paths with “over yonder” is the Disney show Wander Over Yonder and I didn’t even watch it often.
