I couldn't believe how many times they misspelled Kool-Aid.

It's right there on the wrapper.

Last time the HAMC visited Missoula. Link (new window)

FTFA: Said one biker from San Francisco: "You live in one wild town. These people are nuts."

"Missoula was wild," said Rick Fable, president of the Spokane Chapter of Hells Angels. "The people were great. They really knew how to party, and they knew when those cops were out of hand. We loved Missoula, but sometimes I think we were the only ones having a good time."

I like the sign that reads, "Hells Angles." I guess at that age, spelling is rather oblique.

Good for the kids, though. If their mom isn't around, I hope the bikers tell their skanks to flash some boobs at the kids. That's the best tit tip of them all.

It's all fun and games until The Outlaws set up a lemonade stand.

They dismiss a Honda Goldwing here, a "crotch rocket" there, but when the choppy clamor of a Harley Davidson V-twin two-banger crescendos to a deafening thunder, their eyes light up with cartoon dollar signs. One of the boys flips over a posterboard sign advertising "Jase and Dylan's Kool-Aide" so that it reads "Welcome Hells Angels," and a tattooed throng of leather-clad bikers is upon them, queuing up patiently before the juice jug with outstretched dollar bills.

That's funny as hell.

tattooed throng of leather-clad bikers

They were tattooed and were wearing leather thongs?

What?

Those kids should diversify! Maybe they should throw a rock concert...bet the Angles would be happy to handle security.

Nothing short of awesome.

Your link goes directly to video and you must DIE DIE DIE!

Now that the Outlaws and the Hells Angels have a truce I can say that this is cool!

FAIL.

Tiny hurts people. When he loses his temper he goes completely out of control and his huge body becomes a lethal weapon. It is difficult to see what role he might play in the Great Society.

five to one odds that you can buy meth at that stand.

Yeah, you all THINK this is cute, but wait'll one of these kids gets kidnapped and sodomi....oh wait, you said Hell's Angels? Ohhhhh!! I thought you said the kids were selling to Christian school math teachers!

OK, then...no prob!

I came for the people complaining about kids doing something fun and wasn't disappointed. Everyone has some fun and no one gets hurt -- sounds fine to me.

Some sort of rebel math club?

*facepalm*

What's the matter? It's a perfectly cromulent word.

Then why did you run my Free Candy van out of town?

The portion was far too small.

DaCaptain19: Yeah, you all THINK this is cute,

Hell's Angles are all a-cute.

I think you're both right.

/eh? eh?

Those big scary bikers are suckers for cute kids.

Although they'd never admit to it...

And I don't mean it that way either, smartass.

It's all fun and games until Lefty Lemon roars into town.

I ended up at a bar with a bunch of 'em last week. Nice guys.. ended up talking about politics and the war (they saw my military tattoo, and asked about it). Just drinking, having some cigars, and laughing a lot. A couple look kind of intimidating, but overall nice guys.


/many of them doubled as Patriot Guard bikers, rolling against the WBC

Daroc: Some sort of rebel math club?

Non-Euclidian geometry, if Mr. Lovecraft is to be believed.

I used to open for a friend's band in a cafe in North Beach, SF, every Sunday in the early 90s. The Angels used to meet at a bar across the street but on one particular Sunday their bar was closed so they packed into the little cafe where we played (the North End Cafe - original location, not after they moved down the street). You've never seen so many terrified intellectuals. But the Angels were super cool, told me they liked my songs, and when we passed the tip jar we made more money than we ever had before.

platkat: you owe me a new keyboard.

This should have the HERO tag. The kids donated money toward Katrina as well.

Wow. You really think so? Really? Wow.
Oh, I see. That was sarcasm. I get it now.

Catching my drift? Or am I being obtuse?

platkat

Great. I'm sure most of the office suspected I was just pretending to work since it's my second-to-last day here and they were letting me get away with it too.

Not so much now. You know, with the spitting the water across the desk and the choking and the gasping coming from my area.

Nestea Plunge: It's all fun and games until The Outlaws set up a lemonade stand.

HA!

geedavey: Those kids should diversify! Maybe they should throw a rock concert...bet the Angles would be happy to handle security.

Just don't drink the blue Kool-Aid, dude. It's a bad trip.

I have always had the best interactions with bikers. Back as a teen, I worked a convenience store near a neighborhood that had a lot of older bikers living there with their old ladies and kids.

Once had a drunk hassling me because I wouldn't sell him more beer (took him two tries to find the counter). When he got threatening, "Rusty", a regular, grabbed him by the shirt and threw him out saying, "You've had enough, brother, leave the chick alone." Never had a robbery there either. No one would dare.

WTF?!?! Was that kid in the video talking backwards or something?

"Whonk Feeyown Twaah moooowope."

Bikers are usually OK. They at least have a sense of honor, unlike some of the younger gangs out there. I'd rather be in a bar full of Hell's Angels than a room full of gangstas.

If you're fun, treat them with basic respect, and can laugh, most bikers will be cool to you. Act like a douche, and they'll kick your ass.

I love Hell's Angels (I noticed the Angles, but y'know? I don't think anyone else noticed). This is what I really liked about the story:

In California (I grew up in LA and lived near SF and Berkeley for almost a decade), if these kids had this lemonade stand, they would have some grandiose reasoning (spawned by their parents or something) that they wanted to create an awareness of tolerance or awareness of some other nonsense. It would be this huge political thing.

But these kids saw that Hell's Angels were passing by, set up a stand for them because it was an opportunity, and they thought it would work. I appreciate the simplicity of this. Everything seems to be burdened with motivations over here, and they get tiring. I don't want to support anything because it's creating awareness.

Now, I might just be tired and pregnant, and my legs are sore for some reason (I did just spend an hour barefoot in the kitchen...I don't like shoes). So I might be irritated from this.

Side note: last year we were on our way somewhere up north and we noticed there were flocks of Hell's Angels all over the freeway. When they merge, they really don't wait for you to move. You move. Well, there was a huge backup in front of a tunnel, which was unusual for this hour. Apparently there was an accident on the other side, and a Hell's Angel was being taken away on a stretcher.

The car who hit him? A Prius.

I mean, seriously. Just keep driving. Leave the country. Change your name.
