Source: COMPLEX / Complex When he is not acting, Caleb McLaughlin is trying to ball. The teenage star recently went sneaker shopping with Complex and shared his love for kicks and hoops. In the almost nine-minute clip Lucas from Stranger Things was joined by Joe La Puma at A Ma Maniere in Atlanta. The two kicked it about basketball, his role on the popular Netflix series and of course shopped the store for sneakers as he sported his favorite signature shoe, the Nike Kyrie 4 “Red Carpet”. As a huge fan of the Golden State Warriors, he detailed his enthusiasm for the addition of DeMarcus “Boogie” Cousins. “Who wouldn’t want him as a center? The Warriors starting five [are] all all-stars so you couldn’t get any better.” Surprisingly his support of the team also finds him in Steph Curry’s Under Armour models. “It’s my everyday shoe now”. His also let out his inner novice as he recalled getting seeded the very limited atmos x Nike Air Max 1 “Elephant” shoe. “It’s a blessing if you’re a sneakerhead. I don’t remember how many pairs they have, but I know they’re one of the exclusive pairs. I remember getting them that day. I was in a sneaker store and people were looking at me like, “Oh, shoot.” At first I didn’t know what they were called and I was like, “Yeah!” They were like, “You know they only came out today and that’s it?” I was like, “Sure.” When asked about Kanye’s line he made it clear he is not here for the 500’s aka the Desert Rats. “These are not my favorite YEEZY” he explained. As with every other episode Caleb eventually got to shopping and treated himself to a nice re-up of three pairs of Pharrell x adidas HU NMD’s, Travis Scott Air Force 1’s and the Justin Timberlake Air Jordan 3’s.

Alleged Crack Pipe Vending Machines Pop Up On Long Island

Source: ATP/WENN.com / WENN Although the use of crack cocaine has dramatically dropped over the past decade and more, it’s apparent people are still using crude methods to get the drug into their system. In Suffolk County, New York, vending machines featuring alleged makeshift crack pipes cropped up and police there have been cracking down in locating and destroying them. ABC 7 New York reports : Town of Brookhaven officials and Suffolk County police are trying to figure out who placed three potential crack pipe vending machines, dubbed as pen vending machines, in Coram and Medford. The town received complaints about the machines over the weekend. Two of them — one of which had partially destroyed by community members — have been removed. The blue and white vending machines, which featured the words “Sketch Pens” on the outside in black and red font, were mounted in cement into the ground and would dispense a small glass tube and a filter. Included was the top of a pen, which could be put into the glass tube to form a pen, along with an ink tube. Local outlet Pix 11 adds in its reporting that police in and across the Town of Brookenhaven have seized three of the machines with concerns there may be more. Crude in appearance, the machines spit out pens that, when deconstructed, featured the means to put together a pipe to smoke crack for the cost of just two dollars. “There are some people who think they’re going to make some money out of this and prey on a community and promote drug use in a community,” Brookenhaven Town supervisor Ed Romaine said on Monday (Sept. 11) at a news conference. “They’re going to be sadly mistaken.” — Photo: WENN
