To selfishly take or keep something for yourself, or to obstruct someone else's plans or possessions.
Derived from Humphrey Bogart, the famous 1940s-50s actor, who often played tough characters. The slang term emerged from his screen persona and the idea of 'taking' center stage or attention.
This is one of the rare cases where a real person's name became slang—thanks to Humphrey Bogart's tough-guy roles, 'bogarding a joint' became 1960s slang for hogging something, and the usage has stuck for 70 years.
