Have always considered retiring in Austin, but it is soo liberal. Not sure I could hack it.
I actually drove by these women, but traffic was moving so I couldn't slow down and read their signs!
I heard this on drive-time radio as it happened. What brought the cops to come nosing around (initially) was that the "honest" panhandlers were upset that the beauties had muscled in on "their" corner.
The ladies had a mutual male friend with a cell phone and SUV nearby case anything bad went down. Drivers said on the radio that it was a pleasant change from the usual homeless panhandlers.

Try the bikini gimmick in Alaska? It would definitely be a stand-out!
You know, might have been the one time I considered donating to a bum. : )
These friars were behind on their belfry payments, so they opened up a small florist shop to raise funds. Since everyone liked to buy Flowers from the men of God, a rival florist across town thought the competition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close down, but they would not. He went back and begged the friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the smelliest beggar in town to beg outside their shop. When all the customers stayed away, they shut down, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent florist friars.
I was in Austin just yesterday.
Based on what I saw, the cop didn't ticket her as part of an effort to do something about begging.
