Apparently in Miami the ice cream man comes late…
Paul: “What gets me is the ice cream man.”
Mom: “Yeah, I haven’t seen in a while.”
Kevin: “I saw him last week I think…”
Me: “The ice cream man?”
Paul: “Yeah, there’s an ice cream man that comes around midnight.”
Me: “Midnight?”
Kevin: “Yeah, he’s selling drugs. It’s always on the other side of the river…”
*** clarification, “Ice Cream man” is not some clever nickname, there’s a guy in an actual ice cream truck, with the music and everything, who rolls around East Little Havana at night…even though all the kids are fast asleep.
Oh dear…. I wonder if he got his idea from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, which has a mission involving just that–selling drugs from an ice cream truck.
I’ve heard that a few times today actually! I don’t play the game, so I never considered it before…but you’re not the only one who has suggested that.
