Can anyone here tell me what exactly is a "jabroni"?

I was perplexed by this as a small child in the late 90s.

Google says it means "a foolish or contemptible person."

"ORIGIN
early 20th century (as jiboney): probably an alteration of Italian dialect giambone, literally ‘ham’."

I always thought it was that thing that smooths the ice in hockey rinks.
