The Warriors

40 years ago today, The Warriors come out to play. Can you dig it?

Late 70s New York was a pre-gentrification post-apocalypse mess, but even there gangs like the Baseball Furies were a slight exaggeration. But only in their dedication to shtick, judging by this map of gang names and turf from 1974. (Did the Pure Hell and Pure Hells share a common foundation?)
