The Dutch verb 'fokken' means to breed.

For example, "Hij fokt konijnen" means he breeds rabbits.

The way I heard it, it comes from old England when people were
arrested for copulation in a "public place".  The charge, For
Unlawful Carnal Knowledge.  I heard this way before Van Halen's
album, so I'm not making this up.  Really.

Legends, urban or otherwise, are never made up.  They're just
taken as authentic and passed on.

In an interview with Sammy Hagar, he said that the researched where
