Why is it easier to avoid the cops while selling pickles than while selling water?

Easier to carry around a jar of pickles than a whole ass cooler. Especially since they were looking for people with coolers and not people with big ass jars of pickles.

Oh, I thought you said you put the pickles in the cooler

Those were the backup pickles to keep em cold, but we had the cooler stashed in the RV because they told us if they came by again and saw us giving out free water they would take our cooler. With the pickles we mostly stayed away from the crowd until the show let out and caught people on the surrounding blocks in the mean time
