Right after I had moved to Melrose, now The District, I was driving around just east of Welborn in that shady neighborhood. It was around 2 a.m. and I was trying to get back home. I was driving down the street when all of the sudden a huge fireball erupted from around the corner in the front lawn of one of the "houses". I turn the corner and there are 7- 8 african american gentlemen, all wearing either caps or wizard like hats all holding staffs or large mirrors. To this day I still have no idea what was going on.

Ghetto LARPERS???

Jew mobile

Leroy Jenkins?

the peta protest that had a chick in a cage painted like a tiger or leopard.

flag pole man.

Guys squeezing their nuts at a football game

Where have you seen Leroy?

Late one night a friend and I were driving around Bryan and turned the corner and there was an old hooker standing in the middle of the road like in a horror movie. I slammed on my brakes and stopped a foot in front of her. She just stared at me (more like through me) for a while and then stepped back out of the way. She was either high, in a trance or crazy (possibly all of the above). I'm not sure what weirded me out the most - the shock of someone standing there just like in a movie or her expression.

this dude is awesome

Just after katrina CS was flooded with people camping in their cars. I was working at a restaurant on Rock Prairie, and our parking lot was full of car campers. I walked out to the dumpster one morning for a smoke and behind the dumpster someone had left a single beer in a sixer and a dump in the bag. To this day I think fondly back on the old "5 pack and a poop"

Saw an old black dude riding a horse down a back road on a Sunday morning drinking a beer.

Flag pole man's name is Bart. We had a flag competition on the corner of welborn and george bush before a game. He won.

I saw a woman in Dudley's with a Nutria rat as a pet. That's just nasty.

I don't know if anybody else has seen him, but there was always this old man jogging. I saw him probably a dozen times during my tenure, mostly gogging down Harvey but I once saw him just off the highway.
Anyway, he always looked like he was moderately greased up, wore a tank top, headband, and really short shorts. But the weird thing is he was always carrying one obscure thing while jogging, once a muffin tin, once a carton of eggs, and once a newspaper.

That was my first thought. My second was, I wonder if it is still around.

EDIT: It has a facebook page and is officially called the Dispensational Cruiser.

We always called it the Hebrew Hot-Rod or the Chanukah Chevy

This, and the guy who was always walking around town who looked just like Moammar Gadhafi in full military dress.

Saw a lady taking out her trash once at an apartment across broadmoor from Tattoo Consortium in Bryan. It was probably 10pm, and our lights shined on her as we turned onto Broadmoor. She was in full S&M gear, all leather lingerie, a mask, high heels, some chains hanging from her. She was just going about her business like nothing was wrong.

not strange, but neat...saw a transformer blow up in a bright blue fireball

This reminds me of the time I saw one blow up at Texas/Brentwood (near the DQ). I was sitting at the red light facing SB, and the transformer was west of the intersection. It was during bird migration and hundreds/thousands of birds were on the overhead electric wires and the transformer.

All of a sudden, a huge explosion, and about 50 birds drop dead instantly. All the power goes out everywhere.

Oscar Meyer-mobile and the Jew mobile in the same parking lot.

What kind of transformer was it? Autobot or decepticon?

You can't give me pop corn then tell me there's no butter.

Please continue...

Driving home with my roommate late at night after my last final this past semester. We're talking about the energy industry when ALL of the lights for a solid 4-5 block radius go out. We roll up to the stop sign near Detroit/Holleman and there's a black guy just staring at us from the darkness

This was outside my apartment (from my roomie's window)...just there for 2 hours.

Glad we got a new apartment.

While walking to class, on Boyett Street, I was stopped by a black woman who reeked of ****. She asked me if she could borrow 6 dollars...

I said I was sorry and started walking faster...on my way back home I saw her passed out naked on the curb o.O

Had crackheads coming up to our house asking for money.

The neighborhood from foch street down college and old college always had this weird black dude with a beard. Every time you'd drive by him, he'd try and wave you down. He was successful with a few people. You'd look at him and he'd wave at you.


Drove down aspen street and saw a bunch of asians and a mexican walk out of a house and I realized these people were the entire wait staff at Jins. My roommates and I burst out laughing driving by.

Man, school sucks ass but college is by far the best downtime in life. I shouldve failed a class.

Pervy, what was Boyett like late at night? I walked down that way to my house (drunk, took the long way, stupid) a couple times. Always seemed super sketchy and wasn't well lit at all.

This. And asking to use the phone or sell crappy cleaning spray.

Yeah...had kids come by selling sun catchers for their church or other church relate fundraisers.

The only visitors I liked were people asking for metal and other BS we had and girl scouts selling cookies.

I'm glad I lived in a sketchy area. Made the college experience so much better...living in an apartment complex or a more upscale place would've just been lame.
