They Really Are Crazy On The Colfax Bus!

I worked fairly late the other night, and decided to take the Colfax Avenue bus ("The Rolling Asylum") to downtown Denver instead of walking.  The late night commuters seem much crazier than the morning crowd. There was a kid who appeared to be really stoned, and would shake hands with the girl sitting across the aisle about every 5 seconds.  He kept getting up to get off the bus and being told by the driver that it wasn't his stop yet.  He would then return to his seat, shake hands with the girl across the aisle again, and start the process over again.  A passenger in the back kept screaming that he wanted to get off at Honolulu, and the guy sitting in front of me kept telling him to get off at the third stop.  Another man sitting at the very front of the bus kept screaming "Hollywood" over and over again.  The driver repeatedly told him to try saying it more quietly, but the Hollywood man didn't seem to hear him.  The bus driver finally told him to get off at the Broadway stop.  I decided to get off at the Broadway stop, too.  I figured if the Hollywood crowd was getting off, I shouldn't stick around either.  After this little adventure, my walk up the 16th Street Mall and the Light Rail train ride home was, in contrast, pretty damn dull.  The Colfax Bus could and even should charge extra for the free entertainment, and it would be well worth it.  Maybe I could be their agent!
