No problems for the first few stops-a few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well. At the next stop, however,' Thadi Piya', a big hulk of a guy got on. Well over six feet, built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. He glared at the conductor and said, "Thadi Piya doesn't pay!" and sat down at the back.
