A Whole New Word

I think the English language should have a word for when you are
trying to get the remaining ice out of a cup thats clumped and stuck
together at the bottom and when you tilt the cup and tap the bottom
all ice comes crashing down on your mouth and face at once.

What would be the right word?

Google search Brotha:

ice-a-lanche - The annoying clump of crushed ice that accumulates at the bottom of a glass or paper cup which, when tilted and tapped on the bottom, inevitably drops onto your face, down your sweater, into your crotch, etc.--generally refreshing parts that didn't necessarily need to be refreshed.

e.g., Ice-a-lanches are frequently known to occur in crowded movie theaters and finer dining establishments.
