I had a ‘Disco Sucks’ bumper sticker on my car back then.
Only bumper sticker I’ve ever had on a vehicle............

Find some videos of the 2015 Freddie Gray Death riots in Baltimore. Or the riots in Ferguson. Or any Friday or Saturday night mall disturbances on YouTube.

From the article:
“NPR has written that Disco Demolition Night has come to be seen as a not-so-subtle attack against discos early adopters: blacks, Latinos and gay people.
Unbelievable.

Despite the replies stating otherwise, it is a derogatory term used to call any public display of a lack of self-control by anyone that is black. Fight, argument, whatever.
Obviously the term “chimp” is used in place of the more well known “monkey”.
Yeah, It’s a dumb term.

>Whats a chimpout?
Like what happened in Memphis
To: Huntress
Bad, wild, uncontrollable, destructive, riotous, dangerous behavior by a large group of people.
See democratic national convention Chicago 1968, disco demolition Chicago 1979, English football hooliganism etc.

IIRC DDN happened in mid July, so they're a month too early to mark the 40th.
IMO DDN marked the beginning of the real-life last days of disco.

True, but it sounds pretty good in contrast with cRap and hiphop.
