So why do people still use the phrase "worked like Gang Busters"?

No idea? Maybe because it was very popular...and..its legacy lives on? SushiGeek 18:34, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
They were hard workers, those gang busters, catching the perps and all that. Probably what the article says about the 'came on like gang busters' with the heavy barrage of sound effects has something to do with it: forceful, aggressive, decisive. bobanny 04:34, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
