An average joe is a symbolization of an average American person (generally male). The term was used mainly in the late 90s - early 2000s, when the majority of America's population consisted of middle class citizens. Usually falls under the following traits: considered not to be dumb nor smart, follows any kind of sports (and also drinks heavily when their favourite team is not doing well), works five or six days a week (usually as a white collar worker), and comes home every night to sit on their sofas and watch TV.
