A boggart, from my memory of Celtic myths and legends, is a quite mischievous household sprite, often accused of taking things that people lose. If you ask it nicely it may put them back. It also helps to protect your house from evil, and a house without a boggart is an empty house indeed. My wife tells me there is a similar being in Russian mythology. In Harry Potter a boggart is that thing that becomes what you most fear. Neither of these definitions identify with the sentence you are trying to use, so I can only assume it refers to Humphrey Bogart and how he might have pushed his way into somewhere, with a quick flash of his badge.

I always thought this was spelled as beaugarded. This term was used in the South before the Civil War. Someone who would demand to make their way into a place, pushy, but not violently.

I always thought it referred to somone who horded someting selfishly like Humphrey Bogart hoarding gold in the movie The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.

Definition: 1. transitive verb monopolize: to take more than a fair share of something ( slang dated ) 2. transitive and intransitive verb bully or get something by bullying: to behave in a hostile, belligerent, or intimidating way ( slang ) He's trying to bogart his way in. [Mid-20th century. Probably after Humphrey Bogart]

I think Bogart meant greedy/selfish E.G. Pass the spliff you F$%&*NG BOGART

"Etymology: American English slang origin, from actor Humphrey Bogart. Senses of selfishness and excess evolved from the original 1960’s use meaning “keep a joint in the mouth instead of passing it on”, recalling the actor’s signature practice of constantly keeping a cigarette dangling out of his mouth, even while talking. Other senses of “bullying” or “tough guy” also originated in the 1960’s and recall the actor’s various movie roles.
