1979 Gas Shortage

QUINCY, MA - JUNE 27: The Quincy, Mass. Licensing Board restricted the hours of a Mobil gas station in West Quincy, Mass. for disturbances in the neighborhood. The problem was brought to the board by the City Councillor for Ward 4 James Sheets, who said he had no choice as people were knocking on doors and asking to use bathrooms, drinking beer and playing radios full blast at 3 a.m. (Photo by Dan Sheehan/The Boston Globe via Getty Images)
