You get to know them, they get to know you and see if they like you. Then they’ll vote on you to become a prospect. You have to be sponsored by a Hells Angel.
Meaning of the quote
This quote is describing how someone can join a motorcycle gang called the Hells Angels. First, you need to get to know the members and they need to get to know you. If they like you, they will vote on whether to let you become a new member, called a prospect. However, you can only become a prospect if a current Hells Angel member sponsors you and vouches for you.
