Thank you for reminding me of my childhood:) I bus hopped for years with friends. Some of my most hilarious and memorable moments happened while bus hopping. What a nostalgic feeling
Yo, as an 80s writer who youll see talking about the birth of the one flow in the book history of american graffiti and also in piece by piece (OH, ON HOME TURF TOO. LOL)... Ill agree, the 90S WERE the golden era of bus hopping. I remember seeing busses from my car in the mid 90s thinking "DEAMN, LOOK WHAT WE STARTED!" And yeah, you pretty much nailed it. Respect to C STREET! I grew up in the mission and then the Richmond. My lines were the 14, the 38, the 43 and 44. Props. This was good!
Yo I appreciate this a lot 🙏🏻 Much respect back and respect especially for laying down the culture that I came to love at a pivotal time in the city's history. I'm glad I could do the time and the topic justice as it was so special to me and many others
Man, not too many had the experience of bus hopping in the way we did it. You can blind fold me and take me anywhere in the city and I can find my way back with any bus line I find. I loved busting outsiders on street side. #teArTK
Agree 100%. All the circumstances of those times made it what it was and I cant imagine doing what we did in today's times. And same, I haven't lived in the city for a couple of years and if you dump me somewhere with a couple bucks I'll make it home 😅
Aye there, Bay local here wanting to let cha know that I am really diggin’ this/these video stories of yours. I always love it whenever I discover this here historical, story telling type of SF graff-related kinda content just a floatin’ around on RUclips. If you wanna go ahead and continue doing these mid 90’s graff story telling videos… I can assure you that it’ll make a small handful of your aging, graff information/media obsessive type of Bay Area writer kooks who are out there combing the damn internet (such as myself) awfully appreciative of you doing so. Thanks, G!
I appreciate that alot my man. I got another one of these coming in a week or so and I'll definitely be speaking more on graffiti during that time, but thank you for watching
Yea I remember tagging in the 90s, there were some great tagging crew battles back then, like AHB vs SWT was a crazy battle. Especially when both crews ended up on the same bus. 38 Geary bus
Oh shit I remember battling ACB too daymn lots of memories NeVeR1 AHB RCM ABF shoutout to everyone Forreal, the beef was real back then but it’s game recognize game and we end up being Koo with a lot of the other side
Man..was bus hopping in 94-99..FLT..MCA crew. Scribers, streakers, minis..on panels, outside the window on side of bus. Hit the 44 Oshoughnessy, then the 48 Quintata, the the 14 or 49 back up to outer Mission...sometimes hit thr 24 Divis...or stay on..and hit the 52 Excelsior..then the 15 third or 49
Two words "Tom Mosh" if you know that then you were there, i was and "Spoo" was seen. Ride that 30 Stockton down to market, grab the 38 geary and out to ft funston, then walk it down GG park to the McDonald's on end of haightful st. Then ride back down to van ness, grab another up and around back to north beach.
S/O to THA KLICK! Big homie SV1 Sick Vandal, Floe TK, RIP Graf and Seer TK, both those dudes went from bushoppin to moving big weight True Kingpins. MENT TK was one of the original big timers aka Browski…..Schooled a bunch of the youngsters from tagging, banging and slanging. Much respect to my OGs who paved the way CHIEF and Skew ICP…Task TDF HTS, Hear1 KCM, AXIS and FORM ARMobb…LAKE PE, Roler YDV, SuF TDFlock, Leaf TDF, Mayhem, Proof151, TASE Tdk, CASK 640! RIP Jeezy JADE, Archogg GBP, SEER, FEARdog, GRAF, BUCK50, SPESH, ORFN, and so many others we lost along the way.
I remember a bus driver kicking everyone out except for the "taggers"..@ Silver and Mission..and decided to take us straight to YGC. (44 bus) 😂..we had to break the emergency door release to get off as bus was moving. I dont blame the "hero" bus driver. We were wild.
I was there and I remember all of this. Even knew about Zachary Rollins even though I never met him. Weird that I didn't know you. keep up the good work
Bus Smashin Time! 2000-2006 was another epic time……I remember taggin along w the homies and we got filmed for the BST segment for peice by peice one of my best memories…..RIP Flash/Ryda RIP Doja RIP Arch RIP Seer TDF RIP Feardog TK RIP Graf RIP Jaderoc
That segment for Piece by Piece was really dope and I was hoping they were going to get moreso into bushopping than they did, but it's understandable. RIP to everyone you named. Definitely remember seeing Dojah, Seer and Graf up a lot. Remember that TK vs FCK battle especially in the late 90s
Yea PbyP had so much to cover hard to cram it all in two hours…..there was a few bushopper videos that came out after like “Always Juicy” from AJmob that was similar to the BST segment and same circle of kids in that generation. There’s a few others on RUclips from the younger kids.
@@AG-is5vv Right on, I'm gonna check them out. I don't really post on here much right now, but I post about SF Graff in the 90s every week on TikTok, with a focus on bus hopping
The Og homie AXIS ARM BVD laced me on a ton of sick old bushoppin battles DankMob vs TK….the late homie SEER TDf TK schooled me on hella shit from growing trees to Rockin yards….straight SF history and it’s dope to see the young generation keepin the tradition alive same handstyles from the 90s.
You HAD to hit the yards in the early 90s or you really weren't seen as dope. Bus hopping was a way to hit Muni not in the yards. Yea, it's still called MUNI. I also bombed Masonic yards, so the 43s were crushed. Good video.....BVD crew
@@braindrainconnor Nice! I heard you mention holly courts. I was right by Mitchell's Ice cream. Day street was my park. Lots of graffiti at the noe courts before gentrification
I would like to touch on the subject now, there were multiple muni buses like the ones that were around in the 90s that were saved for historic preservation. Thease buses are unfortenetly stored outside and people have graffiteied them beyond recognition. Please if you know thease buses, there are 5 and stored outside, please tell people not to graffiti them further. Thease buses are buses that have been saved to operate in muni's historic fleet and 3 were active historic buses that until they were graffitied were operated in special service commerating muni's first articulated buses, By all means tag regular city buses, we can afford to clean that, but thease buses dont have any money given to them and we can't afford to improve it, please guys dont tag historic vehicles, the rest are fine, us here at the muni shops dont really mind that, its easy to clean, but the historic fleet dosent have any money to be cleaned. Thanks for reading this
Shoutout to London. I was out there in 2000 and definitely saw graff around. Even saw someone put up one of those old OBEY stickers with Andre The Giant that were coming out of California at the time
I forgot to mention big VictorVonTwompski that dude was a maniac on Muni hittin full trains…..and another dude that been Rockin Muni forever is Walker KCM he keeps it lit. Track and Prayer HBK still doin their thang big in the city. Good to see young Afroe TdF back him and Redek used to kill the 14s with tags on the top of the electric lines. PHINE and LAFER BST also killed muni had shots on every bus in the fleet in 2003. DEKO and Tips FBS, HEARock and NADE GB also big on Muni.
Shout out to all those folks you named, there's some very familiar names there. Especially Afroe TDF who was up like crazy, Nade who is a friend of the guy I talk about in the beefing with bus drivers video and Prayr, who i was tagging with when I first got my start and just talked to last week. There was nothing like those times
Great stuff dude, I am 50 now and way less into taggers as I just see them all as peasants wrecking everything they're allowed to be near but love yer explanation of our lives as feral littles. good job
I hear that. I remember seeing the game change around that time when the cameras got introduced. Gentrification and the changes to the city pretty much made it something else entirely
As a “modern” tagger y’all’s bus was crazy, when we do walk downs dudes just look at us weird
feel like it depends on where u live
Thank you for reminding me of my childhood:) I bus hopped for years with friends. Some of my most hilarious and memorable moments happened while bus hopping. What a nostalgic feeling
Thank you for this comment 🙏🏻 I had similar experiences and hope to bring back that nostalgic feeling for others when telling these stories

Damn, this was a dope video. I'm from the PNW but was always interested in the Frisco/bay area scene, always like bus/one flows too.
Right on John, I appreciate it 🙏🏻
I’ve been doing graff for one and a half years now, and this was interesting as hell🔥🔥 Getting to know about graff history is always awesome
I appreciate it 🙏🏻 I got some more coming soon, but thanks for watching

The 14 and the bus yards were our target in the 90s. Masonic yard was the hardest ..

Damn! I wonder if dude had been waiting to do that to some writers and yall were the ones 😅
This shit was so accurate. I didn’t hear a single fib.
Appreciate it 🙏🏻
Nice video homie, As a graffiti writer from Modesto the 90s were an amazing memorable time, always was inspired by SF graffiti.
Appreciate that bro. Shout out to Modesto and the Central Valley. And I agree, those times still have a huge impact on me now
I was there and I remember all of this. Even knew about Zachary Rollins even though I never met him. Weird that I didn't know you. keep up the good work
Aye I appreciate that 🙏🏻 I feel like if we didn't cross paths, then we more than likely know some people from that time in common
Hell yeah...boom box in back of the bus was mandatory..lol

@Bullish23 I spent time at Day St Park for sure and if you grew up near Mitchell's then we probably passed each other on the street a bunch of times.
