Western Sydney Folklore

Western Sydney is the home of the Bogan.

Bogan is a word used by Australians and New Zealanders to describe a certain type of person. A bogan is a person likely to sport a mullet hairstyle (the hair is short everywhere except for the back where it is shoulder length).

A bogan is also likely to own a Metallica T-shirt and to wear it whether they are attending a rock concert or a wedding. When bogans are not racing their cars on suburban streets, they like to dismantle and reassemble them on their front lawns.
