boom goes the dynamite
Also found in: Acronyms.
boom goes the dynamite
interjection An exclamation used to emphasize when something exceptional has happened, especially when it occurred exactly as one intended. The phrase was popularized after a video of Ball State University student Brian Collins uttering it during a collegiate sportscast went viral on the Internet. A: "You've got to use the sniper rifle to take out the guards in the tower, or else you'll never beat this level!" B: "OK, let me just line up my scope and—boom goes the dynamite!" A: "Hey, nice shot!" "Boom goes the dynamite!" Nick screamed, watching his teammate hit a mammoth home run to tie the game. And boom goes the dynamite! That's why I like equipping long-range weapons in this game—I don't actually have to get close to monsters to take them out!
