shyt was the perfect size, color scheme was crack, easy to handle :ohlawd:

when somebody came through with that SS200 you knew they was a brat :russ:
yo my cousin cracked the barrel on his 100 and gave it to me cause I was young then his parents copped him the SS 300 and he shut the whole block down that summer.

all the kids was :whoo::ohlawd::whoa:

this the one that you wore on your back with the extra tanks. :whew:

I'm happy he got some compensation, but they made almost a billion off of it and only gave the man 72 mil? Better than nothing, I suppose. He should have received more, though.
