here is the story...

I came to work 1 day, and we have a salvation army drop off trailor in out parking lot. The old dude that runs the place on the weekends is hella cool. 1 day coming back from my lunch break i drove by and saw these huge speakers outside the trailor. I parked and figured they were a piece of crap pair that someone kicked holes in, and as i got closer I noticed they said Polk Audio on the grille. WTF?? I asked the old dude where they came from and he said some old man dropped them off 5 min ago, and he said u want em? i said hell yea, he told me if they didnt work to bring them back and he would get rid of them. Took em home and their the best set of speakers ive ever owned. Freakin sweet.....
