A Fictitious Vignette
It's 11:59 PM at an undisclosed location somewhere in Chinatown. The B-Squad is ready to run the town tonight, after a long day's work. The plan of attack for the night's debauchery includes hitting a few dive bars downtown, a few strip clubs and end it off with some luxurious self-indulgence at the Shady Palms Motel.

Next up is our Cuzzo's tee, an ode to nostalgic spots like Hawaiian Brians, and last is our Shady Palms Motel tee, the seediest of places in rural and urban areas.
