C’mon man, I got kids to feed

Here’s a photo of my buddy Paul trying to sell some Detroit Lions tickets to a scalper. This guy’s look reminds me of little of Snoop Dogg.

Scalping

When Paul told him the price, Snoop complained and said it was too high. Then he complained to tell Paul that he has kids to feed, that he needs to make a living. Paul’s response was that he has kids too. Four of them!

Maybe Paul can tell us how the deal went down. All I know is that it made for a good photo.

Snoop: C’mon man, I got 2 keeds
Paul: I’ve got 4
Snoop: Ya, but you prob’ly got a job.

He had me there. Shortly after this picture was taken his boss came in and chastised him for not paying my already low asking price. You’ll also notice in the background the security lady with the sunglasses walking towards us - apparently you are not allowed to sell tickets on the street; she strongly suggested (with threat of confiscation) that we take our business to the opposite sidewalk. All in all, a tame trip to Detroit.
