tony beets grandson
Definition
A reference to Eagan Beets, the grandson of Tony Beets, the legendary Dutch-Canadian gold dredge operator and star of Discovery Channel's 'Gold Rush.' Eagan, now 18, has been immersed in the family mining empire since childhood and recently stepped up for high-stakes repairs at the Yukon claims.
In pop culture slang, shorthand for the next-gen Beets family member tough enough to handle machinery breakdowns and million-dollar paydirt, proving the apple doesn't fall far from the dredge.
