Never heard of it, but I did correctly predict what the link would show. Isn’t crunk a style of dance? How does a glass hold a dance? Wouldn’t be much good holding a crazy drunk either, less the drunk was really small or the pimp cup really big…
Crunk is a dance style, yep. Which I only know because I watch So You Think You Can Dance.
Sigh. I need to get out more.
Never heard of it. From the site posted:** Every real or wannabe pimp should carry a personalized iced out pimp cup! **
I’ll pass.
The entire definition had been pointed out in a prior post. With one exception: it commonly refers not just to “crazy drunk” but actually being high (on marijuana) while drunk. I assume it is so called because the combination causes some crazy effects impossible to achieve with either alone.
Anyways, almost all slang terms have multiple definitions, and knowing which one is being used in a particular context is part of the deal.
Also, urbandictionary.com is your friend.

I’m 21 and hadn’t heard of it. But I tend to dwell in my own head a fair bit & consequently am never the first to know these things. I’d guess about half of my like-aged friends may have heard of it; I’m surprised that 20 for 20 of your students knew.
No, I had no idea either. Frankly I’m surprised they’re not banned, given what happened to the last guy who tried to use one.
I’d never heard of them prior to this thread, but when I read the OP, my first thought was “I bet it’s gold chalice covered in rubies and diamonds and emeralds and other assorted bling.”
So it’s nice to know I haven’t completely lost touch with what’s “Fly” with the young people and their “hip” sub-culture. 
Never heard of or seen them. Over here in England, we sup our pimp juice from a pint mug, dawg.
Zathros? Kadir beneath Mo Moteh?

Sokath, his eyes uncovered!
Zathras!
Probably have sad pimp hand, but at least there is symmetry.
CMC fnord!
Never heard of it before either.
Never heard of a pimp cup, but I assumed it was what you got when you won this.
The original pimp cup. (In the hands of the original gangsta!)
Easy – it’s not ajar!
Not only had I never heard the term, I think I’d never seen anything like that. Is having your name “glass-beaded on” what makes them “pimp cups”? It can’t be the shape, there’s several shapes just in that page.
Never heard of them, but now my life is complete.
Because you, sir, have class.
And how much did the education necessary to make that cup cost? And what about the cost of the forge? And the cost of selling it? And so on. This is a lady who’s going to get a severe reality check when she sets up in business.
I thought that was “crumping”.
I’m old. It’s official, now. Never heard of them.
I may have to find a different place to hang… you people are so uncool. I’m a middle aged white guy from suburban midwest and I knew what it was. On a trip to the trend setting state of South Dakota I saw them on sale (Spencer Gifts if you want to pick one up).
It probably helps that I’ve got teenagers… at least one of which likes to watch Cribs and likes Rap and Hip Hop. I’m a little scared that there have been a few times when I’ve been driving along and I realize I forgot to change his CD… and I’m actually enjoying parts of it.
I may have to actually get one so I can totally humiliate my kids the next time they bring any friends over. But that’s just the way I roll.
