Johnny from Florida recalls his famous bus ride with Buddy

John And Buddy Korean Bus Tour..

As usual, Buddy and I met up in San Diego for a trunk show. We had a day to kill and we always talked about going to the San Diego Zoo but never went. So we decided to go the next morning.As usual "gadget man' had the latest GPS system in his bag so we were confident we would get there. We were walking to the parking lot where Buddy spotted two big busses with the words clearly marked "San Diego Zoo" Buddy loooked at me and said "follow me bro" I knew I was in trouble. We boarded the bus, and took seats in the second row. There were about twenty Korean people staring at us and the silence was deafening. I was sweating bullets while Buster tells me to act normal. Between the two of us we were carrying about a million dollars in product. Well the bus took off and I started to relax. Buddy helped himself to a coke from the cooler. When we got to the downtown area, the Korean tour guide was giving out the tickets for the zoo. When he got us, there were none left. The tour guide asked who we were and we told him we saw the bus and wanted to go to the zoo. He was a little more than angry and cursed at us in Korean and also at the bus driver. We were escorted off the bus in a not so desirable area. As the bus took off, all of the Korean Tourists were laughing at us and I remember Buddy throwing his half empty can of coke at the laughing tourists. We made it to the Zoo and had a great time and eventually we both laughed the whole thing off. Never a dull moment with Buster. I really miss him
