    We’ve got the tamale guy around where I live now. He’s such a big deal that during hurricane Harvey my buddy found him at Buc-ees between here and Dallas, put up a public Facebook post about it, and ended up with his most liked and shared post ever. It was a blow to his self esteem because he couldn’t get nearly so many likes about his band playing a benefit after Harvey.

      We had a guy like that with a push cart when I lived in L.A.! Just pushed his cart down the road yelling, “tamales!” That was awesome.
