LAN is an acronym for Local Area Network that is pronounced as "Lan" (like "land" without the "d"). It is commonly used to refer to a "LAN party," which is a social gathering where gamers bring their own computers to play together on a LAN.
LAN parties may involve just a couple of people at someone's house or thousands in an arena-type setting. Partygoers commonly play multiplayer video games that start in the evening and last until the next morning, which makes fast food and energy drinks a popular choice for consumption.
