Blind Man's Epic Response to New Yorker Who Mocks Him!

A man from New York and his wife wait at a bus stop with their nine children. A blind man joins them shortly before the bus arrives, which is too full for everyone to board.

Bus Stop Incident

The overloaded bus can only accommodate the man's wife and their children. The blind man decides to let the family take the available space on the bus instead of himself.

The wife then suggests her husband walk home with their baby in a carriage. Grateful for the blind man's generosity, the New Yorker offers to accompany him on foot.

A Long Walk Home

As they walk, the baby stirs awake from the sound of the blind man's stick tapping on the sidewalk and begins to cry. This noise frustrates the father further because he missed the bus.

An Unexpected Response

The father irritably suggests that adding rubber to the end of the stick would reduce noise. The blind man retorts with humor, suggesting that rubber at the end of his own stick might have meant they were riding instead of walking.
