South Station
In the early days of the Metro there was a hawker standing outside South Station in the afternoons. He would sing and dance as he handed out the paper and I genuinely looked forward to seeing him each afternoon. I liked him so much in fact that I wrote a letter to the Metro saying that even though I didn't like the format of their paper and almost never read it I really enjoyed this hawker. I don't know what happened to him.
