    Thanks, I did actually look it up after posting the question. Seemed more like a baseball term, but makes sense now.

    Absolutely more of a baseball term.
    It's kind of stupid in football because it really only applies in OT but applies to almost every OT game.
    For baseball, it happens quite a bit and can happen any given night, no extra innings required.
    Basketball has no such thing (although the only sport with a "buzzer-beater") and I've never heard a hockey game use the term, but technically all OT goals are "walk-offs". maybe skate-off?

    Now that the big 4 are covered, let's get into the obscure………

    for relevance to the thread - :coltsblow:

    I'm definitely more of a hockey guy than baseball
    Hockey is just sudden death, cant beat Game 7 playoff OT

    oh no. Term applies to many real life situations.

    for example, my wife and and I were entertaining friends at a dinner. While getting desert out of the oven, she unexpectedly farted out loud. She calmly put the desert on the counter and stated to all thank you for coming and good night. she walked out of the room and went to bed.

    We call that the “walk off fart” now and laugh our ass off about it. She’s such a good sport about it. But she takes beano now every dinner party. Shiz (or air) happens.

    lol. I'll have to watch for some extra "walk offs" in real life situations. That's a good one.

    At this rate they might bring Adoree back in time if and when they make the playoffs. What a lost season for this guy...

    Buckner and Autry out. That’s huge. OL is banged up like ours. Colts are banged up. If we don’t gift them 14 points and miss FGs I feel pretty good about this game.
