Fall From Power

George (Bandido George) Wegers, once the most powerful Bandido in the world, lies today in a nursing home, broke and without any status in the club. Wegers suffered severe spinal damage while cruising alone on his Harley Street on the afternoon of Sunday, September 27. He was turning off Interstate 5 in Skagit County, Washington State, near his home when his bike spun out of control. There were no drugs or alcohol in his system, although his helmet wasn’t Department of Transporation approved. Apparently he was being tailed by federal agents at the time of the crash. He had already been bumped from the club because of a television interview he gave. Just a half dozen years ago, top Canadian Bandidos grumbled about how they couldn’t get a telephone audience with him. Now, he’s physically and financially busted and out of the club, and they’re either dead or in prison. Odd to think that, not long ago, they all wore patches with “BFFB,” for “Bandidos Forever, Forever Bandidos.”
