How long would this young white boy last if I just casually walked thru Harlem on a clear cool night saying..

"Hey bro's, how is it hanging." While I pulled out a wad of 100's and ate my ice cream cone. :D


btw.. anyone here ever make a wrong turn and ended up in a bad neighborhood? Did you remain calm or were you frightened? Did you ask for directions?

Not true, you would be down before you took a lick of that cone.

Harlem's not that bad. Don't go past the 150's, though.

I used to do a fair amount of work in Compton and South Central and never got hassled, although it was daytime. I figure they just thought I was a plain clothes cop.

Flashing $100 bills would have a lot more to do with your demise than being white.

A friend and I were going to a Magic: The Gathering tourny in Atlanta back in '96. Having no clue how to get to the hotel it was being held at, we were driving aimlessly around downtown Atl. We must have past 9000 cops and the areas didn't look too bad, so we felt comfortable. Umm, well we hung a left on one street and it was like the difference between night and day. On each side of the street there were tons of those side by side duplex apartments. In front of EVERY apartment was a large gathering of blacks. Within like 20 seconds, boths sides of the street starting running towards our car, yelling god-knowns what. Now I'm not racist, and I'm not afraid of any particular race, but something about having 200 of the ugliest, nastiest black guys coming towards me scared the living sh!t out of me and my friend. I've never seen my friends '78 Oldsmobile go so fast...

From that day on, I either go to Mapquest or do the unmanly chore of asking a store clerk for directions...

I heard that they actually filmed that scene in a black neighborhood, and the original sign said "I hate everybody". They replaced "everybody" with CGI for the movie.

We took a wrong turn in town for a supposed shortcut. We ended up about to go into this narrow alley because of a road that had closed We see this guy doing the "I got a gun and i'm about to cap y0 ass" strut with his arms near his side and legs wide, and my dad (the driver) quickly put in reverse and got out of there.

I learned one thing a long time ago.

Where ever you are, ACT like you belong there and you have a much better chance of getting out of there alive.

Probably nothing would happen to you... Or you might get smacked and they grab your money and run or just try to sell you some drugs... That's about it.

I live in harlem btw.
