    My favorite Pennsylvania Story:

    Was on a road trip out to Chillicothe Ohio (long story there..) about 1998 or so - anyway it's me and my buddy (him of puerto rican/brown man looks) driving a Jeep with NY plates. We're somewhere deep in Southwest PA when we pull off the highway to fuel up. As we're gassing up, a beat up rust colored 1970's Chevy Nova pulls in next to us. The car features fat Red headed freckled boy in baggy jeans and an Ice Cube T Shirt driving, his black girlfriend/wife and a baby. The back seat is just packed with junk. He gets out and starts fueling as well but giving us these weird glances. Me and my bud are like WTF? So we start topping off and Freckle Boy says in that weird pennsyltucky accent, "You guys from New York?"

    "Um, yeah."

    "New York Citay?"

    "Um yeah..."

    "Hold on, don't move!" He runs back to the driver side of the car and is rummaging through the vehicle, screaming at his girlfriend wife - "Where is it?!! WHere did you put it bitch?!" He finds whatever it is and he runs over to us.

    With a cassette.

    "This is my demo tape. I'm a rapper. I rap you know, not urban, but like my own style. It's like real. I keep it real. Could you take this to someone in New York?"

    Now see, he was real earnest and we felt, as we were "representin' New York" and all, we took the tape and said "we'd see what we could do..."

    So he bundles back to his car, gets in and drives off..leaving us standing there with his demo.

    It sucked by the way.

    But man, that was a strange, strange trip...
