Manhattan, NY – In what is destined to be a momentous occasion of enormous proportions, a New York City panhandler is set to reveal the location of the elusive “twenty-five-cent cup of coffee”.The move comes after mounting pressure from New Yorkers who find themselves constantly hassled by panhandles demanding “a quarter for a cup of coffee”, numerous times each day.
“I think it is completely unfair that panhandlers can pay twenty-five cents for a coffee while we, working people, pay as much as six dollars,” complained Manhattan resident Earl Lee Rizer.
The panhandler – whose name is being withheld for fear of being targeted by panhandlers determined to maintain the well-kept secret – agreed to the proposition after he was offered free coffee for life in exchange for the exposé. “I will admit that the cheap coffee tastes like mud,” he warned, “but it’s dirt cheap, so I can’t complain.”
The location of the discount coffee will be printed in The Morning Cup, a news magazine popular among coffee connoisseurs.
“We will be accompanied to the secret location by a large amount of security personnel,” said Morning Cup editor, Ivana Wright. “We never know what kind of trouble might be brewing.”
