You're not getting out enough, Gunner. Ruck is a rugby term - it's
when the forwards all lock up together over the ball and try to push

I'll be damned if I know how he gets cats to do it, though.

I thought that was a "scrum".

Yup. Loose ruck is similar when you're fighting over a loose ball.
That happens a lot, because once you're tackled, you have to drop the
ball. If you don't, they're free to fight for the ball while you're
still hanging onto it.

Is that somehow related to "ruckus"?
