When in Rome.

This past weekend I attended Virgin Festival in Toronto. On Sunday morning it was raining and there were a few entrepreneurs hanging around the entrance selling rain ponchos for $5 (Normally available at better dollar stores for...well $1 plus local taxes). Nice profit margin.

I wasn't in need of a rain poncho but I did notice that one of the rain poncho hawkers was not even wearing a rain poncho and was keeping himself dry with an umbrella!

He came up to us and asked "Are you guys ok for a rain poncho?" we nodded "yes" to his disbelief, I also said out loud "The rain ponchos can't be that good if you're keeping yourself dry with an umbrella".
