@edwardbenson as funny adjacent story. There is famous chicken and rice cart in nyc Halal Guys. On corner of 53rd and 6th

But three of the four corners ALL had halal cart. And there was escalating war between them to be thought of as the famous halal cart.

On metric tourists used was line.
@edwardbenson so if you went at certain time, one of carts would give free food in order to build up line before lunch crowd arrived so it would look like they were the famous one

I could teach entire microecon class around that street corner of nyc. One group bought uniforms, so all had too
@edwardbenson There were many funny stories

But the funniest part was that if you went at lunch the secret was NONE of them were the actual cart

Because the real cart only served the night taxi crowd
