What does that 13 patch mean?

Depends on the club, potentially even the charter. Numbers are usually metonymous in nature. In this case it would be improper for me to speculate.

I suspect it stands for Marijuana since he is in a “support club”.
I take the bikers “side” in this in that feds and or cops screwed up and did almost all of the shooting.
But Bergman is a huge dumbarse, plenty old enough to know better then wear a Bandido wannabee patch.
Hundreds of biker clubs to join that don’t weed out members for outlaw clubs

“Numbers are usually metonymous in nature.”

Maybe Bergman would have to look that one up.

No. He wore the patch to communicate to other members of the group he rode to T.P. with that day such as Bandido President David Martinez. Would he take the chance to wear on his person, some symbolism, that could be misinterpreted by so “esteemed a Person” in his biker circle? NO.

He knew what he was wearing and what other bikers would take it to mean. If he wore the 13 patch because he really meant it to mean something like “the Mystery of the Missing 13th floor” he could have been not only misunderstood by the serious bikers whose company he esteemed, but beaten into a bloody pulp.

He did not have a metonymous meaning in mind.

No, it was not the Mystery of the Missing 13th floor.

It meant what Bandidos in Texas take it to mean, nothing more, nothing less.

This is not one-over-the-world speculation or Alice in Wonderland.
