Make fun of one's peers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spree

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'make fun' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'one's peers' is the wordplay.
'peers' can be anagrammed to 'SPREE'.
However, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for spree that I've seen before include "Splurge" , "Session of over-indulgence" , "Binge" , "Period of extravagance or excess" , "Revel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
