I was at a ball game a few years ago, and as I left there was a guy with no legs sitting in a wheelchair with a sign saying something about being a veteran or something. I felt sorry for the guy and threw a buck in the box next to his wheelchair. As I drove home I got to thinking about this guy.
He sits at one of the main exits of that ballpark after every game (I see him every time I go). Assuming that 25% of the people leaving the park walk past him thats around 10,000 people walking by every night. If 1 in 10 people leave a buck in his box, he is making around $1000 a night. 81 home games a year, and the guy is making $81,000 before taxes.
I guess the moral of the story is the sig whores might want to cut off their legs and go to the ballpark. There is more money in it.
