Kids Are Playing In The Street Again.
If you didn’t know, I spent last week in Boise, Idaho. Contrary to what the internet and your imagination would have you believe about Boise, Idaho it really is a pretty city with lots of lively local shops and places to dine. With that being said, there is one thing you will notice about Boise almost instantly that is unlike any other city I’ve ever experienced in America.
The kids are out in the streets. Every. Night.
Without fail, these kids are riding around the streets of Boise on Lime scooters in gangs. I shit you not, these kids are doing tricks up and down the main streets of downtown Boise. I’ve never seen anything like it in any other city I’ve been in. On the first night of my visit, I was sitting on the porch of a gay bar drinking a tequila soda giggling as upwards of 5 different groups of teens scooted past the bar on rented scooters.
Later that night, a child spun out of the alley next to the bar, jumped off the scooter and asked a group of gays, “Have y’all seen another group of riders go past here? I got separated from them.” Everyone laughed as the child sped off into the night.
As my time in Boise continued on, I noticed more and more how much the scooter culture had impacted the city. I started seeing more and more “no scooter” signs around the city (pictured above). It made me giggle to know that kids are having so much uninhibited fun that they are terrorizing local establishments. Thank God kids in Idaho are playing in the streets again.
Shitty Business Ideas
Sharts, I am offering you all-you-can-eat snow cones in exchange for the safety of our nation’s future, the children. I know that may sound like a vague request, but I believe we can single-handedly get kids out of the streets of Boise, Idaho and into a safer environment with less drunk and distracted drivers.
You see, as we’ve grown up, we’ve taken our favorite past-times with us. Now any arcade you walk past is being transformed into a bar-cade and you can’t go into an ice cream shop and get unlimited free samples anymore due to corporate greed inflation. To put it plainly, everything suck ass for teenagers, so much so that they’ve resorted to renting electric scooters and riding them around to feel something.
So what if we created a low cost adventure park where kids could rent these scooters and do other cool hoodrat stuff with their friends. That sounds like it could be really fun. PLUS we could have a snow cone stand (that’s where your all-you-can-eat snow cone vouchers would be redeemable).
