I thought it was strange when I missed a week, instead of just banning me they sent an army of boogans armed with tire irons to my apartment. I really like this sub, but I don’t think I can support this kind of behavior

Is boogans just springfield slang? I have never encountered this word elsewhere.

Boogans is my favorite of the regional dialect.

Pretty sure it's a bastardization of the Australian term, [Bogan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogan#:~:text=Bogan%20(%2F%CB%88bo%CA%8A%C9%A1,be%20pejorative%20or%20self%2Ddeprecating.).
