I moved back to Chicago area over a year ago. Plus, if you look at a freaking map Rock Island,ILLINOIS is not in Iowa

I didn't put two and two together. Sorry.

Try putting a note on the machine where you found the ticket with an email address or cell number to text.

Yeah, I don't think he is necessarily stealing in my book.

Taking something that doesnt belong to him and opting to sell it rather than attempt to find the poor soul who lost it.

Meh, he found it if he is telling the truth. I got no problem with it. If you find a 20 laying in the middle of the road do you turn it in?

Middle of the road? No. Because there would be no chance to find the rightful owner.


At a place where a person might come back to look? Absolutely. Someone did that for me at Walmart recently. I got cash back on the self checkout and forgot to grab the 20. Went back 15 mins later and someone had turned it in (after trying to catch me)

Im just glad it was a good samaritin behind me and not someone looking to profit off others misfortune.

Im sorry that everyone in New York is dishonest.

But here in the heartland, we look out for eachother.


And I dont know of any stations that have only machines and no windows. This whole thing is weird.

A board member could have saved $14.95. chas has had a rough run of late(racism and disrespecting the military) but he almost was able to make up for it with this selfless act.

Too bad rpb blew him up and he probably had to do a selfless act for a guy on craigslist.

This is how it would go:

Sign: Lost Metra ticket? Text what, where, when to Chaspop. include photo.

nobody responds to creepy Chas.

Chas gets to keep ticket after a reasonable wait time.

Sorry Chicago, you don't get to play the "honest" card.

Maybe Naperville or Schaumburg could, but not you Chicago.

Yep it would be that easy.

Furthermore the person who bought the ticket probably buought a ten ride because they cant afford to shell out for a monthly. Living paycheck to paycheck, paying taxes so people who don't work can live like kings.

Well that $50 is probably about half the Xmas budget.

Sorry kids, Santa loves you less this year.

Happy Holidays Chas. Enjoy your $20 Starbucks drink

Good. Let the kids learn the lesson early that public transportation sucks.
