Gutter scene on Magnolia Avenue at the Kat Bus stop.
“I sell singles and I sell packs.” said Kat as she showed off the bag of cigarette packs full of hand rolled smokes.
After I asked Kat what she does while we were riding on the Kat Bus from East Knoxville to Downtown Knoxville she quickly pulled a gallon size baggy full of cigarettes that she has previously rolled. The fifty-six year old started out selling candy bars and soft drinks to people that she knew. She said the cops don’t bother her because she has been selling candy and cigarettes without a license since she was eight years old.
