Wigging out!

I just want to document that I was responsible for coining the phrase: "Wigging out", Wigged out" , 'He wears the wig", " Wiggin'".

This was done on October 25, 1977, in Garden Grove, California, in Charlie Penate's garage at a HS party.  The main referneces were to my friend Ken Evans.  He came with us to the party wearing a long blond wig over his face.  People were amused and bemused.  I simply looked at him and explained that he is "Wigging out!"," he wears the wig!"  The rest is history.  Anyone who graduated from Rancho Alamitos HS in Garden Grove , CA can attest that this term was first heard at this time.  I therefore, claim to be the person who first coined this phrase in its current usage in pop culture.
