Can someone please explain the phrase "winner winner chicken dinner"?

Question

I hear it used on Sportscenter all the time!

Answer 1

It's a casino stickman's call. Stickmen are the guys who handle craps games and they usually have clever patter, by no means unique to each stickman. The earliest use of it I could find without really trying is from 1995. I've been hearing it since I started playing craps in the mid-eighties. "Winner!" is something that the stickman has to call (since the dice have landed at the other end of the table and you may not know what number has come up). Adding some patter makes the game more fun and seems to keep the stupid bets coming.
