The Jets had fought away many over gangs over the years to keep their turf, and the peurto ricans moved to the united states and took their claim to it, so the two gangs are constinatly fighting over it.

In the end the two cannot be together with all the hatred and the boy is shot and killed, but all the deaths of both leaders and him caused the gangs to stop the fued.

When you're so giddy or excited that you start randomly dancing just like the characters from West Side Story while doing everyday things, such as walking to school, opening your locker, brushing your teeth, etc.
Person 1: Hey, why is that guy just randomly dancing?
Person 2: I don't know, he must have West Side Story Syndrome.
Person 1: Yeah, that must be it.
