Left Holding the Bag
Left Holding the Bag
to be left holding the baby, to be left as the only person who’s responsible or blameworthy for a difficult situation, to be put in a situation where you have to assume all the responsibilities in an unfair way
The expression “left holding the bag” originated in eighteenth century Britain and spread throughout the English-speaking world. In this context, a person left holding the bag is stuck with the stolen goods, taking the blame from the police while the rest of a criminal gang escapes.
The phrase is also used in association with the practical joke known as a snipe hunt, in which an unsuspecting newcomer is led outdoors and left “holding the bag” in which to catch a creature that does not exist. As an American rite of passage, it is often associated with summer camps and groups such as the Boy Scouts.
