23 Skidoo (phrase)
''23 skidoo'' (sometimes ''23 skiddoo'') is an American slang phrase generally referring to leaving quickly, being forced to leave quickly by someone else, or taking advantage of a propitious opportunity to leave. Popularized during the early 20th century, the exact origin of the phrase is uncertain. ''23 skidoo'' has been described as "perhaps the first truly national fad expression and one of the most popular fad expressions to appear in the U.S", to the extent that "Pennants and arm-bands at shore resorts, parks, and county fairs bore either 3or the word 'Skiddoo'." "23 skidoo" combines two earlier expressions, "twenty-three" (1899) and "skidoo" (1901), both of which, independently and separately, referred to leaving, being kicked out, or the end of something. "23 skidoo" quickly became a popular catchphrase after its appearance in early 1906. Origin Although there are a number of stories suggesting the possible origin of the phrase, none has been universally accepted. Fla ...

23 Skidoo (film)
''23 Skidoo'' is a 1964 short experimental black-and-white film directed by Julian Biggs and produced by the National Film Board of Canada. Synopsis Its central images are "eerie" and "disturbing" scenes of downtown Montreal devoid of people.
