The American Motorcycle Association had sponsored an event in Hollister. They had not expected as many attendees as showed up (around 4000 participants).

The town was not prepared for such a sudden influx of people and it overwhelmed the merchants and locals. Bikers wound up sleeping on street corners and park benches as a result, and one group of bikers in particular (The Boozefighters) started racing drunkenly up and down the streets.

The incident itself was not that bad when taken in context, but media outlets portrayed the situation as much more volatile than it really was and it contributed to the fear of average Americans in relation to biker gangs.

Oddly enough, the Hells Angels weren't even founded at this time, and they didn't exist yet.

They would be founded the next year in a completely different city, so the brief answer to this question is, "There is no story of the Hells Angels in Hollister. They didn't exist at the time."

Why is there no apostrophe in Hells Angels?

According to the Hells Angel MC Official website: "Should the Hells in Hells Angels have an apostrophe, and be Hell's Angels? That would be true if there was only one Hell, but life & history has taught us that there are many versions and forms of Hell."
