beermuda triangle
n.— «One reason Johnson believes his numbers remain high is because of his location, in what some patrons call the “Barmuda Triangle” or “Beermuda Triangle.” That’s the nickname some have given to the area surrounding Romeo and two other bars said by the state to have high DUI numbers: The Horse and Cow Bar and Grill on Northlake Way and the 19th Hole on Erlands Point Road.» —“The Legend of ‘Barmuda’” by Josh Farley Kitsap Sun (Bremerton, Washington) Apr. 4, 2007.
