Heavy Burner's Society
Milpitas
1980's
A self-professed, "Bullshit Club," evidenced by annual elections for club president (nickels counted as one vote "for" pennies one vote "against"). Votes were counted
New Year's eve for that year, not the following year, and weren't done being counted until after midnight, so the elected official was never really President, but got bragging rights for the previous year. The money helped pay for booze at the party.
Cards with a custom rubber stamp containing secret ID symbol's were printed for members to gain entry to parties (passed through the door jamb).
Each member had a nickname and "the Prez" had to approve these, but even though membership was rather
exclusive, everyone who smoked dope in Milpitas
in the early to mid-80's either scored from one of the members or knew of the HBS.
Matt "The Prez,"
Friday at 5 at Brian's,
Rocky, the asshole who would
inevitably yell and kick everyone out.
You could describe us as white punks on dope, but this it is the only abreviation of HBS that can stand.
