In baseball, "A rundown, or when a runner is caught between two fielders who are throwing the ball back and forth to each other in an attempt to tag the runner out."
Then there's Arlo Guthrie's Motorcycle Song. I'm not sure what it's about, but it does establish that pickle and motorcycle can rhyme. Sort of.
A pickle walks into a bar and the bartender says, "Hey, you're a pickle! What are you doing here?"
The pickle says, "Well for starters, I'm celebrating the fact that I can walk."
Thanks, c_b. That has to be my all-time favorite use of pickle. :-)
Rocky Rococo: "Are you threatening me?! Why, you stupid toad! I ought to beat your brain out!"
Nancy: "No! Put down that pickle!"
