Why Did Evel Knievel fight with a hell angel?

1972, when Evel Knievel came into town, he obviously had a beef ongoing with the Hells Angels. At his first Cow Palace jump, he egged on the Angels in attendance over loudspeaker, as he made negative comments to the crowd about the "bad element" in motorcycling, with his reference to the "outlaw bikers." Then he ended his speech by giving away a new mini-bike to a black boy in the crowd. Evel then rode his bike outside the arena (it was raining outside) in order to hit the speed necessary for his jump. As he made his way in, a Hells Angel threw a beer bottle at him as he thundered in for his approach. He still cleared the jump cleanly, and then rode towards the crowd waving triumphantly. He next stepped off his bike, approached the offending party, and landed a hell of haymaker punch to the jaw of the nearest Angel. It was on and things got wild in the Cow Palace! When some of the other Hells Angels piled onto Evel, the crowd joined in the brawl to back their American hero. The Angels had a hard night that night, and it took security quite some time to calm things down.
