Locker Room = Amyl Nitrate.  It was a then-legal high, mostly sold behind the display in head shops & record stores.  Hunter S.Thompson packed it with him in his trunk of fun in Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.  You could even buy it at K-Mart, I suppose?  It also sold under the brand name 'Rush'...for the cheap, dizzying head-rush it gave.  If you had liked huffing Testor's airlplane glue from a paper sack, then Locker-Room would have been the buzz you would have sought.
