Looks like a suffix (-capade) or even just a blend (no entry). Can anyone find citations where this stands alone as a word? Equinox ◑ 21:57, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
- I think the etymology misses a step. The uses all seem to derive from Ice Capades. It appears in plural in numerous book and especially performing-arts titles: Borscht Capades is my favorite, but also Mice Capades, Lunch Capades, Moose Capades, Horse Capades. It also appears in combination in sex-capades and others. DCDuring TALK 23:36, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have added a sense and cited (IMHO) both. DCDuring TALK 19:16, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

- I would have liked to see three citations for each sense that were not in combination. We still lack the proof of this being a CFI-attestable single word. This entry isn't a suffix. Equinox ◑ 16:19, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
