Shocker at the White House!


Are we sure we're ready to get rid of this guy? ; )
I have no idea what the background of this shocking picture is, but I can assure you all that President Bush and the White House staff are all, in fact, repping the shocker.
Reminds me of a story Dallas, Cody, and I experienced in Chicago leaving the Cubs game.
As we made our way towards the station to catch the L we detected an unsettling and confrontational tone in a conversation taking place between a street vendor and a somewhat unkempt gentlemen.
The situation quickly gathered steam as the unkempt gentlemen exclaimed with ferocity, "Do you know who I am?" "I'm the shocker!"
We didn't know it at the time, but upon turning around to assess the state of affairs, we soon realized that we were in the presence of none other than 'The Shocker'. Or atleast that's what his T-Shirt and general persona proclaimed.

Schocking indeed!

The sheer awe of being in the presence of The Shocker still has not worn off -- not even Camacho's antics that weekend could compete with The Shocker!!!

Ryan, the only part you omitted was The Shocker's derelict buddy "holding him back" and the ensuing stream of obscenity and idle threats and/or insults that immediately followed as he was escorted down the street (away from quickly approaching Chicago police officers).

Don't forget the fact that the shocker completely ruined the street vendors t-shirt pole. Also worth noting is the fact that after the skirmish was over, other street vendors were banning together and scheming a plan against the ruthless shocker.

resolution's not too good on it though, might make a good 11x17 or maybe 12x18 size poster.
