spittoon
Chewer's target receptacle
A spittoon is a container for spitting into, especially one designed to receive tobacco juice from chewing tobacco.
Once common in public places—saloons, hotel lobbies, courthouses—spittoons have largely disappeared along with the habit of chewing tobacco indoors.
Also called a cuspidor.
