The Chippendale Rescue Rangers was formed in the late Winter season of 1982 by chippendale founders Somen "Steve" Banerjee and Paul Snider when they had the idea of expanding their market of male dancers. They had come up with a few ideas, such as cereal and "Chippendaleland", but those didn't work out too well, the latter especially because they couldn't bribe the amusement park businessmen with the right amount of money.
