Pikers, gypos, or if you prefer, gypsies. The Pikers on the movie travel in cravans, moving from site to site whenever they manage to get themselves into trouble with the local authorities. With the way that they carry on, this doesn't take long.

The Pikers are looked down upon and loathed by most of the non-Pikers in the movie. They're sneaky as hell, and don't mind showing it, as they've got the strength to back it up. In addition to that, anyone who isn't a Piker usually doesn't understand most of what the Pikers say. As Turkish says, "It's not Irish, it's not Enlighs... It just, well, it's jsut Pikish."

The main Piker on the movie is, of course, Mickey O'Niell.
