This discarded sign offers a new tack on the challenge of panhandling in the cynical Fremont neighborhood. The full presentation involves lying along a heavily traveled bike path, curling up in the fetal position and draping the cardboard sandwich board style message over the shoulders. A rain soaked hat is placed nearby for whatever funds might be forthcoming. This is the third sign that has surfaced in as many weeks, making it easier to separate the posers from serious players. Makes one wonder how many times this ploy will work. Even the vernacular lettering fails the sincerity test.
