I'm amazed at how coordinated the panhandlers are at the College Drive off ramp at I-10. I take that exit to go home every day from work, and every single day there is one panhandler there, begging money from cars. They never miss a single day. If this was a work crew, they would be the most reliable work crew I've ever seen. And here's the amazing thing. It's always a different hobo. It's almost never the same guy (or gal) twice. It's a different motherfricker pretty much every day. What is there, some sort of website telling these people where to beg in Baton Rouge, where they can sign up for certain days or some shite? They've worn a little path in the grass from walking up and down the off ramp. It's ridiculous.



Take college/corporate everyday. No clue how true this story is, but I was told they essentially have a pimp. He gives them a place to stay, they pandhandle and he gets a %. Thats why they rotate locations/areas.

I just say I don't carry cash without breaking stride.

I believe it. There is a guy I see sparingly downtown, but he had never propositioned me before. One night, a buddy said he saw him find a sucker then walked back to some well dressed guy in a suit. The next weekend I saw that panhandler get into that guy's luxury SUV and drive off with him at the end of the night.
