Warmeostraat

Post by Gnarleydudeman »

On my first trip back in 2001 I took my video camera, I was just randomly filming and a guy just started going off on a mad one in front of my camera.

However unfortunate this guy may be, it's entertaining. They've moved a lot of these people on, rightly or wrongly they did give Centrum some character:

He could still there doing the same thing, whatever that is (fleecing tourists for cash maybe, although he didn't want anything from me). Have you seen him, or similar?

They will lock on to anyone who is not Dutch. I feel for visitors that get caught in the innumerable scams people run. Do not try to buy anything from these people! :shock:

Don't see as many crack heads there these days either. I probably ran into maybe 2 in the space of 5 days earlier this year.
