It'* a shame when people don't stop. As a street entertainer I see it all the time. I don't accept money, but a few try. Some watch, many don't. Kids stare with wide open eyes and want to interact. Parents take a picture and then move on, the kids still want more. It'* just the way people are.

Ive stopped and watched.Altho im hardly in the city i dont see this much.Our version of strretside entertainment is driving by a bunch of guys on quads and what not.

haha this, or a tractor driving by.. or an amish person.. lmao
