Sunny D - One Bad Azz Drink!

Getting on any random Metro Transit Bus, you run into a lot of things on the bus that you think to yourself  "Where did this come from". During my commutes, I run into a lot of items left on the bus. A couple weeks ago, I found a bag with Sunflower Seeds and Bowling Shoes.

Yes, Bowling Shoes.

In the "OMG- Thats Madd Ghetto" Dept, I saw a weave track chilling in the aisle of a bus.

Now last week took the cake, not from what it was, but the reaction to it by the riders.

I catch the 355 Bus from Downtown Mpls to one of the Park and Rides in Woodbury. It's one of the articulated buses and they come often and usually get's full by time we hit 94 East. At the most, there's 2-3 people that board this bus at it's first stop at the 5th Street garage so you have your pick of the litter. I normally sit in the same spot everyday.

On this particular day, there was a passenger (or stowaway) on the bus before anyone boarded.

Sunny muthaf*$&kin D! Straight chillin! I mean, no OJ, no Soda, and damn sure no Purple Stuff!  I laughed at myself and didn't bother to move it because I wanted to see how bad azz this gallon of D was. Will it get up and let someone sit down? Will it realize it's on the wrong bus, pull the string and simply get off?

Nope

It appears Sunny D was tired and it demanded a seat. I'm not mad at'em.

Most of the 355 riders are professionals who after debarking the bus, gets in their Mini-Vans, SUV's, or Hybrid vehicles. They don't want any trouble and is nice and orderly when exiting. These mild mannered people just sit and read their Nooks or look at reports via their laptop, or look at stocks on their iPhone app. Clearly someone will ask Sunny D to give it his seat for the 40+ minute ride to Woodbury.

Yeah right Sunny D said. Not only did no one move Sunny D for it's seat, but people actually STOOD for the ride.

Sunny D - Oh my...you're so Gangsta!!
