The worst was the one with the inane tune that paused every 20 seconds and some kid voice yelling "HELLO-O?!" and then back into the inane tune. Horrible. Before that was the one that played "La Cucaracha" on a short loop, that one made me smile I'd have to say. I wonder if some white knight had it shut down for cultural sensitivity reasons.


That HELL-O part made me laugh. I’m glad I’m not the only one who finds it horrible. It’s so creepy. I do miss the days of people on bikes selling ice cream tho. It was something so odd but worked for a while.

I like it. Sure, annoying to adults but the look on my kids faces is priceless. They dont beg and cry for ice cream when it rolls by they just love watching it. They are harmless.

I think my issue stems from the fact it stops literally in front of my front door every day while my obese neighbors get a “treat.” The music plays the entire time it sits there, full f****** blast.

If it was just rolling past, I probably wouldn’t even notice.

They band door to door sales, but not street to street vendors. Law needs a redo

The music is annoying, but how is 8 or 8:30 late?
Kids don't even finish sports till 8:30 or 9 for the younger ones.

What young kids’ sports are finishing at 9pm?

You should put your kids to bed earlier.

This is an utter myth
Door to door sales were not "band" at all

I am sure you have seen the Bell guys working hard in the hood last couple of weeks?
Only a few very specific sellers are not allowed to go door to door

Cocktail hour!!

Even if they’re still awake, they sure as sh*t wouldn’t be outside crushing ice cream.

Under 6 soccer goes from 7:00 to 8:00 pm
Then it's ice cream time.
Denti said 14 years old. I went through that age category with hockey. They don't finish till 10 sometimes 10:30 pm.

An 8 year old in bed and asleep by 730? That's like a 430 to 5 am wake up time? That's painful.
