Metroverheard: P.I.

Summer vacation is coming to an end, which means a probable decrease in tourist conversations on the Metro like this one:

Tourist 1: So where do we get off?
Tourist 2: “Metro Central,” I think. It’s after Gallery Place. Is this it?
Tourist 1: I don’t think so. This is Gallery P.I.
Tourist 2: What’s “P.I.” stand for?
Tourist 1: No idea.
Me: *facepalm*

    Oh…and I wouldn’t be surprised if they asked if Gallery P.I. was related to Magnum P.I. (snickers)

    Nice! A very original tourist conversation. Someday, I’m going to document every convo bloggers have overheard on the Metro.
