The phones were $1,200 a pop for like a flip phone, you know? And I was with guys who just made so much money. And the way they would get it in, in Fort Dick, there's two fences. So the perimeter truck comes around every three minutes or something like that. |
| 0:23.7 | They, you know,, there's two fences. So the perimeter truck come around every three minutes or something like that. |
| 0:23.6 | They figured all that out. |
