 * Keep. This is actually a fairly well known concept.  IIRC it was mentioned in Hunter S. Thompson's book on the Hell's Angels.  At any rate it meets the "I had heard of it before I read the Wikipedia article" test.  - Smerdis of Tlön 23:38, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. I've heard of this as I have a few bikers in my family. It's definitely not a hoax, and it needs expansion; don't know quite how to go about doing this for this topic.  I searched on the web before this AFD and could not find much more than this. Someone realy dedicated to the topic needs to dig harder. - CobaltBlueTony 23:44, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete I agree with some of the reasons for the "keep" votes, but still, this is just cruft that Wikipedia can use without.  T   h    e    R    S    J  00:03, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep, well-known, well documented concept, google turns up thousands of hits related to this, e.g.     .  That last one is from a History Channel documentary I saw which discusses the concept.  I'm sure there's plenty of other reliable, verifiable sources to be found with only the tiniest bit of research.  It's been around since the forties (July 4, 1947 according to one of those sources).  Some of those refs may be a little trivial, but some definitely are not, and I'm sure that many more can be found.  Also acceptable would be a redirect per Mmoyer, but deleting this real, important and verifiable concept while keeping all the dumptruckloads of cruft we have about (e.g.) Pokemon, one-hit-wonder bands, video-game weaponry and dead-end highway spurs would be criminal!

 * Redirect per MMoyer's reasoning. GRBerry 02:50, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Indeed a legitimate term for some, but shouldn't the definition of a term be in the dictionary? ER Talk 07:48, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
