    Reminds me of this bodega here in my state that sells beer and groceries out the front and it was a gambling room and trap house in the back 😂

      @BenLaurence  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks Ruth!!!! I love how it’s so hidden and you’d never guess it was there! Definitely worth a stop if you’re ever in Boston!

    Great place, love the set up of the place and loved the illuminati jacket 😉 did you look at the wall mural closer?
    Didn't realise that was Stanley until he spoke, that's a lot of hair he has !
    This place reminds me of a place in my city which is a laundry downstairs but through a door and upstairs is a hidden bar open weekends. Another place which is closed now was a pizza place which was through a small doorway next to an office, it's hard to explain how strange the location was and you would need to be able to find it and buzz an intercom to get inside.
    Your outtakes always make me 😂 I think you must swear as much as me.

    • @BenLaurence
      @BenLaurence  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Peter i yeah this place is really cool! Lol gotta throw in some Illuminati stuff where ever I can /👁\ lol. Yeah that mural was sick!!!
      Haha Stanley got rid of the fur hat but grew out his hair so he could still keep warm 😆
      Wow those places sound like some secret spots that I’d love to check out! The pizza shop sounds like it was run my the mob lol.
      Oh yeah man I swear A LOT 😂😂

      Happiness and Sweet Tea I love how it’s so hidden as tucked away in the middle of the city! I think they need to have a limited edition Ben Laurence left foot slipper set! Those things would sell so fast! 😂 gotta love the outtakes haha

    That is so crazy how that shoe store is in that convenient store! Lol. I have never seen anything like that! If I’m ever back in Boston, I will have to go get me a Snapple! Lol. But the prices on this stuff was crazy expensive! 😀. Love the crackhead singing! 🤣. Glad to see Stanley back on the adventures! I see he bought the hat! I like this video! It’s different but cool to see places that us from other states have never seen! 😀

    • @BenLaurence
      @BenLaurence  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Janet Irvin Fljovifan I’ve never seen another store like this either! I love hidden stuff like this so I was all over this store haha. Yeah if you’re ever back in Boston definitely come here to get a Snapple *wink wink. Haha stuff like that is sooo expensive! I was into all that stuff a few years ago but couldn’t afford to keep up with the latest styles 😂 gotta love Boston crackheads just singing in the streets hahaha! Stanley’s back in action and picking up a Bodega hat (even though he doesn’t have a Ben Laurence hat 😒🤣) Thanks for watching Janet! I love doing these videos to show everyone around the world these cool places :)

    Tight video, you cah cah mouth. That’s the coolest front for an exclusive sneaker shop. Those vans with the gum soles were sick as phuck. Exclusives are always so taxed tho. I’ll just stick to the make your own on the vans site.

    • @BenLaurence
      @BenLaurence  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Peanut butter Waltz haha thanks man!! Such a cool store! I would have never gone in there if I didn’t know that it was a shoe store! Yo the Vans they had were sick! I should have checked the price jus for fun. I’m sure each pair was $100+. I didn’t know you can make custom pairs on the site!!! I’ll have to check that out

    How ridiculously lost in consumer culture does a person have to be to spend that kind of money on a cotton t-shirt with a logo on it? At least spend your money on some quality fabrics or stylish cuts.
