I heard that same story, but the guy was on a subway ... and everyone in the subway car cheered when he said it!
That reminder me .... about a year ago, I was in a store and a guy walked by me and I started to laugh out loud when I saw him. He smiled at me and continued to walk away.
His haircut was a one inch wide Mohawk about 2 inches tall ... but it went side-to-side (from one ear to the other).
