The bobble-head doggie guy at U.S. Highway 55 and Cicero, Chicago

Selling trinkets U.S. 55 and Cicero, Chicago
Guy selling bobble head dogs: "Two for five bucks". "You don't have five bucks? How about two?" "No? You got a dollar?" Me: "Sorry, I really don't have any cash, only plastic. But thanks for letting me take your picture."

There are always several people working this busy corner on the way to Midway Airport in Chicago. Well, more than several, actually. Usually at least six. On one corner is the "Homeless please help" sign guy with the pleading eyes. On the other corner is a woman who says her car broke down with her kids in it. The only thing, is it is the same people begging every day. It's very well choreographed, and I wonder what penalty they pay for trespassing on someone else's corner turf.
