STOCKTON, Calif. (KTXL) — Thousands of people are expected to ride into Stockton this weekend for Sonny Barger’s funeral, one of the founding members of the Hells Angels Oakland Chapter.
Barger passed away in June from cancer.
The owner of the speedway where Barger’s memorial is happening this weekend says there has been extensive preparation to make sure this event is safe — and one that will go down in history for good reasons.
“To us, it’s a historical event at a historical racetrack,” Tony Noceti, President and CEO of the Noceti Group Inc, said.
