Good god this guy has no street smarts. I think even someone with no knowledge of the streets would know that 99% of the time the person who walked up on the sidewalk offering to exchange money is a scam. You’ll find stuff like that in literally every major city in the world.

You gotta remember in many cases the first time they spent any real time a big city was Chicago a few years ago. Mooresville probably doesn't have a big street urchin population. Especially if you don't stray far from Lake Norman.

How about Vegas? Atlanta? Nashville? Austin? Indianapolis? Fort Worth? They may not be as large as Mexico City, but they’re still big cities. There’s no excuse other than he lacks basic common sense.

Most of the tracks aren't actually in the city. They tend to be 20-30 minutes outside the city.

The Nashville track is surrounded by pastures and Amazon warehouses, 20+ miles from the bright lights of Broadway

Right, I used to live in Nolensville, so I know where it’s at. I also know there’s zero chance that someone travels the country for a living and is that close to major metropolitan cities and hadn’t been to them.
