I was in the store and the person in front of me had a huge 407 (for Orlando) tatooed on one arm, and an "863" (for Daytona area, I think), on the other. I've never seen this before, is this some kind of local trend in Florida now, or maybe it was just that one person doing it?

It's not A FL thing specifically, but a ghetto thing.

I'd never seen it before. Doesn't seem very smart, what if you move out of that area code?

Rappers are making it the "in" thing to do now. We are a sheep flock society...always following the herd and doing what everyone else does. Sad...but true.

I fail to see the ability of rappers to make anything an "in thing". But I guess that's because I have an IQ higher than a toad...

Too true. But then again, I pull my pants up to where they belong too.

And I never allowed my children to dress like that either.

It's more popular among AA it seems, I think partly due to the rap/thug culture, which it is popular amongst.
