bum HUSTLED BY A BUM IN DETROIT?

On Friday, I met up some friends to go to the Tiger game. I won’t bore you with details of the game, the Tigers sucked ass.

In fact, it was probably the worst sporting event I’d ever been to.

Anyways, as I walking from my car to Comerica Park, there were a handful of street vendors selling Pop, Water and Peanuts.

I wanted a water and the guy told me it was a buck. I reached into my wallet and only had 10′s and 20′s. I apologized and gave him a 10 dollar bill.

He looked at me, got real pissed.

“Man, I’m poor I can’t make change for that son”. (yes, he called me son)

I apologized again as he swore underneath his breath….

He says, “What do you want me to do with this”…

I said, “Well, for starters, how about just giving me my 10 dollars back. Sorry for the inconvenience….”

Then what does this guy do….

Pulls out a wad of cash about 6 inches thick with hundreds, twenties, and a bunch of singles…

Hands me 9 bucks back…..

Good to know there are still some hard working, honest “bums” in Detroit

What'd you think of this?
