Trivia
- They appear in at least three Gang Attacks in GTA Online: they spawn in the hobo encampment north of Mount Chiliad, the projects in south Rancho, and the farm north of La Fuente Blanca, although sometimes these spawn the Armenians or the Professionals instead. It is odd that they show up in gang attacks in south Rancho especially since that is Vagos territory.
- Their favorite radio station is Soulwax FM.
