Of the 600 caps you got in the box, maybe 10 would fire off like it was supposed to. They would always get a bit off track. Then it was hammer time, or pop them with a big rock.

Po-Boy from Danny and Clydes


One of my favorite early 2000s New Orleans rappers had a lyric that went:

"bitches try to get on me
cause they think im gone be ballin
but im still catch in rides
to Danny and Clydes
For a shrimp po-boy, joes, and a bag of fries."

Slurpies (Icees), baseball cards, bubble gum. I remember when they made gum that was the same as the super bubble but instead of one 3/4" piece, it was a long stick, maybe 10" long.

Mom would send me to the store for bread. She'd give me a dollar and it was 65 cents and I got the rest to get gum or candy.
