It doesn’t seem to have any sort of schedule, I’ve seen it around noon one week then around 6PM another. I think it’s just someone filling in for whatever route they do and running through the neighborhood

No shite. Have you ever really thought about where those kids are putting their hands during a hot summer?!

One rolls through my neighborhood sometimes. My son loves chasing it down. He doesn’t even care about the ice cream. It’s the ritual of buying it from a magical truck that just delivers treats.

This is ice cream.... kids
Should of clarified for you. Not only do ice cream trucks clean up, the ladies selling street tacos out of their trunks do as well in neighborhoods with a shite ton of construction. If you have a truck with ice cream, street tacos and cold drinks, you’d make a killing. I see 5-6 workers at a time surrounding these vehicles. Go into a trac builders hood and clean up. Or not

They go around my neighborhood in the winter. If it reaches 50 they’re out. Their problem is they don’t go slow enough. We tried to catch them a couple times and they zoomed by without a glance.

I was just behind one in Youngsville.

I remember when the ice cream man used to come to town when I was little. And no matter what I was doing I would stop and lose my fricking mind! There's something about the ice-cream truck that makes kids lose it.
And you could hear that shite from ten blocks away. I didn't hear my mother calling but I'd hear that motherfricking ice cream truck. And no matter what was was going on, the iceman came, it stopped. I'd be getting some marbles and shite:
"ice cream! Ice cream! The ice cream man is coming! The ice cream man is coming!"
"Mom! Mom!"
"Throw down some money!"
"The ice cream man is coming!"
Then my mother come to the window and be throwing change and say:
"Get your father toasted almond boy, get your brother icy, get yourself vanilla cone and bring back my change."
Catch all that shite and run down the street, top speed. Chasing the Icecream truck and:
"Icecream!"
Ice cream man always drove extra blocks away though. And I know he's seen us and shite, but I think he just be in the car with his friends and say:
"Watch me how fast I make these motherfrickers run"
I'd be behind him doing 50mph and going:
"Icecream!"
I stop, you be out of wind saying:
"Icecream man, can I have this, I want this over there, toasted almond for my father, and give me this ice cream over here and vanilla cone. Thank you, icecream man! Thank you!"
I'd get my ice cream and I didn't eat it just sing for a little while. You know how kids are.
"I have some ice cream, I have some ice cream, and I'm gonna eat it all, I'm gonna eat it all..."
The ice cream be running down my arm and shite
"You don't have no icecream!
You didn't get none! You didn't get none!
"'cos you are on the welfare, you can't afford it."
Other kids would join in:
"You can't afford it, and his father is an alcoholic!"
"You dropped your ice cream, you dropped your ice cream..."
Eat it. I could drop my icecream in a pile of shite and eat it. I would be like "It's just sprinkles"

Holy shite.... the first part of your story I was right there with you. Word for fricking word. That's exactly how it was.
And then you got to the welfare part.....

Those kids in my neighborhood were brutal. That kid was too late for ice cream and they mocked him something awful.
They were on welfare too, and his father was an alcoholic. So technically, they were just accurately reporting, not mocking.

So you've moved on and climbed your way out of it I hope!

That neighborhood? No. Some parts suck still, but let me tell you about the cook-outs and my Uncle Gus!
