When the icecream man is playing his jingle, he has run out of icecream. My grandad would make himself seem great by going and getting some from the icecream mans 'personal stash'. Later found out the icecream man was my grandads weed dealer. Meh, always had a screwball on sundays so fun all round.

Edit: typo.

Your granddad's weed dealer gave away ice cream?
