like crazy, wildly, having a great/chaotic timeexpressioncolloquialA fixed adverbial phrase meaning doing something in an uncontrolled, intense, or carefree way. 'Divertirse a lo loco' means to have a wild time. The meaning cannot be predicted from 'a' + 'lo' + 'loco' by a learner who only knows those words individually.
