Derived from Boggo Road Gaol, a now-defunct maximum security prison in Brisbane, Australia. A Queensland Government inquiry into the living conditions of State prisons found Boggo Road to be outdated and inadequate for prisoners' needs. No.2 Division was closed in 1989, and the No.1 Division was closed in 1992 and demolished in 1996. For a prison to be closed down under such circumstances would indicate it must have been well and truly shithouse. Hence, 'boggo' is used to describe any person or thing that is extreme in some way.
