Panhandle
Narrow state extension
A panhandle is a narrow strip of territory extending from a larger region, resembling the handle of a pan: the Texas Panhandle, the Florida Panhandle.
To panhandle is to beg for money in public places, typically by approaching strangers on the street: He panhandled outside the subway station.
A panhandler is someone who does this regularly.
