What are some funny inside jokes among people who row crew?
- "Seat racing." This is when two rowers race each other to see who can get to their seat on the erg first.
- "The crab." This is a term for when a rower loses their balance and falls out of the boat.
- "The coxswain's revenge." This is when the coxswain (the person who steers the boat) gets payback on the rowers for something they did to them.
- "The coxswain's tan." This is a term for the sunburn that the coxswain gets on their face and neck.
- "The rower's tan." This is a term for the sunburn that the rowers get on their backs and legs.
Although not technically an inside joke, a fun fact about the rowing community is that rowers often use the term "sweep" to mean that rowers are rowing with one oar. The term "scull" is used to mean that each rower is using two oars.
