==In popular culture== In the 1980s [[TV series]] ''[[The Paper Chase (TV series)|The Paper Chase]]'', Season 2, Episode 16 ("My Dinner with Kingsfield"), Contract Law Professor Charles W. Kingsfield plays the word "vavasor" and earns 60 points in a [[Scrabble]] game with his student James T. Hart while staying at Hart's residence during a snowstorm that has immobilized Kingsfield's car. He defines the word to Hart (who has never heard it before) as a "medieval term for 'tenant slightly below a baron.{{'"}}<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulNNhKnKSEs&list=PLEtwdb0nlBARyUWdIPMVYeurpeVoYrJ-u&index=16 ''The Paper Chase,'' Season 2, Episode 16: "My Dinner with Kingsfield" (YouTube)]</ref>
