Big Whoop is the name for the supposed largest, most powerful treasure in the Seven Seas and is even rumored to contain the gateway to another world, though the exact nature and contents of such a world are initially unknown to most. However, it is eventually revealed by LeChuck to be the source of his demonic powers as it serves as a dimensional nexus to an infernal demon netherworld that is derived from its original position of Hell itself, binding the physical realm with the manifestation of evil itself; thus the rumored gateway to another world is in actuality Hell itself. Passage through the portal results in the individual forming a covenant with the infernal powers of Big Whoop and being granted eternal life as an undead entity, therefore killing the individual in the process, though one whose soul is doomed to eternal damnation in the event his or her's new form is destroyed. Therefore, as it names implies, the true riches of Big Whoop are worth nothing of true value to pirates who value wealth and can not only be an extreme disappointment, but a hellish nightmare for any pirate. In LeChuck's mind, however, who has an insatiable lust for voodoo and power, harnessing Big Whoop is a useful if dangerous prize to aid in his plans to conquer the seas as well as death itself. The portal to Big Whoop itself is located inside the bowels of the Caverns of Lava within the Giant Monkey Head on Monkey Island , though it was originally believed that the treasure was located within the jungles of Dinky Island. The reality is, however, that Dinky Island is an atoll off the coast of Monkey Island and contains a secrete passageway within its jungles that leads to a series of mysterious tunnels that run beneath the ocean floor, connecting Dinky and Monkey Island together.

Looking into it, it is very related to the sarcastic phrase "big deal" but I can't find much about the origin. The Oxford Dictionary says that "big whoop" originated in the s while its entry on "big deal" says that it came from "Early 20th century; earliest use found in Frank Norris — " but gives nothing about how it originated. I tried looking both terms up on Dictionary. That makes sense to me. The phrase a whoop and a holler meant a short distance i. So, no big whoop means literally "That is of little consequence. See the OED entry 1c for whoop below:.
It was reputed to be "The biggest treasure of them all. A treasure so valuable and so well hidden, that it haunts the dreams of every pirate on the seas". Its true nature was that it opened a portal to the afterlife, where a person could transform themselves into a ghost and return to existence as a powerful immortal. Threepwood learned from cartographer Wally B. Feed that years before, Captain Marley had set out on the same journey with his crew and that the treasure they found was either so wonderful or so horrible that they buried the treasure and split the map into four pieces. Its location was under the Dinky island. A year after Guybrush Threepwood had destroyed the Ghost Pirate LeChuck people were growing weary of him telling and embellishing the same story over and over again. In response, he decided to set out on a new legendary adventure by embarking on a search for the fabled treasure of Big Whoop. The Voodoo Lady advised Guybrush to comlpete his quest because she said " Big Whoop isn't just a treasure.
