In '77 the Westchester club attended North Jersey's diner dance with their own tea pot, club mugs and even club tea bags and earrings. Site gags like this went on for years between the two clubs. The topper was when North Jersey showed up at Westchester's picnic with acaricature's of the clubs shirts. (Wrustbucket Street Rot Assoc) complete with a picture of a '34 Ford that had been wrecked.
