Hey, I have that!

The other week I was driving through some part of NE Minneapolis when a familiar shirt caught my eye. I did a double-take out the car window to see a woman dressed in the green Bennies shirt that were for sale my sophomore year of college. I'm a particular fan of the green Bennies shirt because it's such a great shade of green.

Any time I see someone in Bennie or Johnnie gear I also stop to see if I recognize said person. Due to my college being fairly small and isolated there is usually a good chance I will at least recognize the person.

In this instance, however, the person wearing the green Bennies shirt was clearly a homeless person who hadn't been able to wash it for quite a few days. I can't explain exactly why, but it was an odd experience all together.
