Where there is money, crime follows




Burglars know where the money is at. After all in Boca Raton it is not very hard to tell. Flashiness is everywhere, from cars to jewelry (bling bling), to Dolce and Gabbana to the mansions. Unfortunately the crooks know where it is at.
Yesterday evening outside the Renaissance Hotel in Boca Raton a jewelry courier was robbed of an estimated $30,000 in bling. Police said the victim just pulled up when three men, all wearing hoods, masks, sunglasses, and gloves, walked to his car and smashed out 3 of his windows. One of the men proceeded to hit the victim several times while the other perpetrators took a brief case and his case of the jewelery from the trunk.
The suspects got away in a silver or grey Nissan Maxima with a paper tag.
The victim had minor injuries.

put it on daddy's credit card


so i was at saks the other day... browsing dresses that i only wish to purchase. just as i walked by the counter there was a very-well dressed young girl, the oldest she could have been was twelve and right then and there- amongst the big pile of clothes she was purchasing came out a very pretty plastic credit card. it was the one and only black american express and she didn't even flinch when passing it to the sales associate. makes me think... only in boca.

Grandmas Younger then their grandaughters!!!!!!!

haha so I walking in the mall last week, I went by the store Forever XII thinking that is the spot for girls.
STTTTTTTTTTTTOOOOPPPPPPPPPPP, man was I wrong
There were more middle-aged women in their then teenagers. I freaked out.
Then it stands out to me as I walk around and you see Grandma's dressing more revealing then their grandaughters.
ITSSS DIISSSGUSTING GRANDMA, u need to stick to knitting your owner sweaters and covering up yourself.
I'm now traumatized by this and everywhere I go it seems that there are more and more grandma's claiming they are younger then their grandchildren all of a sudden!
Stick to what you do best, driving slow and cutting people off......

Old People of Boca Trying To Get Into The Mainstream Music Scene


This picture was taken at a Lil Wayne Concert recently by a friend in Boca Raton. This old man is wearing a shirt in support of the popular rapper Lil Wayne or "Weezy". Obviously this old man has nothing better to do with his spare time. Believe it or not, I saw this same man in the Town Center Mall wearing the same type of shirt. The only difference was the shirt said "Taylor Swift", a teen pop sensation right now. Since the majority of the population in Boca is made up of Retirees, I thought this was very outlandish, but not so extreme for the Boca Raton scene. It definitely brings a chuckle to people. This is not the last time you will see an elderly wanting to be hip and in with the times

The Guy was Covered in Tattoos!!

I was at a nice doctors office in Boca and saw this guy who was completely covered in tattoos. Completely covered, he was a giant piece of art. He had tattoos everywhere, arms and legs completely drawn, hands, his bald head, get this, even his face had tattoos on him. His face had some sort of tribal art on it. We see everything in Boca, from Ferrari's and multi-million dollar mansions to this canvas of a man.

'I think I have some extra change'_SC


I shared with a friend how we were blogging about bizarre and unique stories & circumstances that people would only see in Boca Raton and he jumped at the chance to share some of his favorite stories. As a previous waiter at the Boca Raton Hotel, he's witnessed some very interesting things.

There were once a group of older women (senior citizens to be specific) who weren't the friendliest to serve and extremely demanding to say the least. They all had the biggest diamond rings and besr designer handbags. One woman ordered the filet mignon, another had a lobster appetizer and the third ordered the fish special- market price. Not only did they stay for more than two hours, when it finally came to paying the check, one American Express and he thought to himself- Thank God & Finally! The highlight of the story is that when he returned the bill for them to leave a tip, they all scrambled through their purses and I kid you not- out came their penny purses and they left him a measly $3.76 in CHANGE! But they were kind enough to walk out and say, "Thanks Doll, the food was delicious!"

Hmmm... Only in Boca!

Dogs in Strollers


DOGS in STROLLERS!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding me.....
Walking around the Town Center Mall, I was shocked to see a dog being pushed in a stroller. Only in boca you would find this. Let alone multiple mothers would walk around with dogs in their purses and diamond leashes and collars around them.....
Typical "BOCAN" treating these animals better then their own family.
Stop with the strollers and leashes.....
Will put a collar and leash on you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is it Bad that we think Valet Parking at Movies Theatres is Normal?


Is it bad that we think valet parking at movie theatres is normal?
The Muvico Palace in Boca Raton has a Valet and drop off area as seen in the picture. Ive been living in Boca Raton for over 9 years now, and used to think that every movie theatre contained a valet option. Society and the mainstream is now about getting to your destination the quickest, and with minimal effort. I have seen this movie theatre during its low hours, and believe it or not you will see a line for valet, even if theres parking right up front. This is something that you will only see in Boca. Most "Bocans" will never park their car themselves..thats a fact.
