I saw this hobo when while running an errand with my brother the other day. Break down of why this guy is a pretty classic hobo if you ask me:

1) He’s leaning against that support column. Leaning is a known hobo pastime.

2) He’s sleeping during the day. And sleeping during the day is also a known hobo pastime.

3) There’s a 40 next to his sleeping hobo-hand. It was mostly full. Hobos are good at saving things for later.

4) His one extended leg is hanging over the curb and into the traffic lane. Hobos give no fuck about stuff like that.

5) There’s a sandwich and some fruit next to the other column. Any good hobo knows to keep his food away from his person while sleeping - it keeps the wildlife at bay while their guard is down.

Of course, he could have had his lunch tied up in a bandana that was hanging from a stick, in which case he would have been an ultimate hobo. He could also have achieved ultimate hobo status by being on a train or playing a banjo. In any case, “classic hobo” isn’t so bad.
