lis selling harder by walking faster and
topping less often.
Brent had a motive for selling as many
iags of snacks as he could that evening:
le was determined to make enough
noney to purchase a pair of sunglasses
he next day. Not just any pair of sun-
lasses, either.
"Ray-Ban Wayfarers, with a jadestone
trip, above the eyebrows," Brent said
utomaiically. as if he'd described them a
tiousand times before. He went into great
letail, even explaining the type of sun-
;lass holders he's going to get
Two of his friends already have the
;lasses, and, taking time out to count his
noney, it looked like Brent was going to
e the third Netting $25 so far that
vening. Brent was questioned if he'd put
ny of it in lo his savings account.
Smiling, he said no. He was going to
tave those glasses. Asked whether his
nother encourages him to save his mon-
y, he shook his head and said, "My dad
toes, though, but that's his problem,
ight?" he grinned sheepishly.
"lis anxiety grew as he was given his
as: basket of the evening. "I hope I can
ell this," he mumbled to himself. Brent
:ncw he would have to move quickly to
ell his food from the waning crowd, or
:lsc take a loss in profits; once he buys
he food from the concession stand, he
:anno< return any unsold merchandise.
His efforts paid off as he hustled up
>ne flight of stairs and down another, in
«arch of hungry people. With one bag of
icanuts left in his basket, he walked
down some steps, until aman raised his
hand for Brcni. Smiling end sighing with
relief. Brent headed back to ihe concession
stand to drop off his basket
No sooner had he walked away from
the stand, did he have his hands in his
pockets, searching for the money he'd
nude that evening. He walked out the
gate, stopping to talk to one of the girl
hawkers he apparently knew from school.
Later, Brent admitted be was trying to
nuke up his mind whether or not lo ask
her to a dance at Kastner Tuesday. 1
know she likes me, but I can't decide," he
said.
It was time to find his parents. Descend¬
ing a flight of stairs, he spotted them al¬
most immediately, and rushed over to re-
put on his profits.
"How many trays did you sell, honey?"
asked his mother, Mary Jo Walker. He
couldn't remember exactly, be said,
somewhere around seven or eight.
His father, David, got him the job after
Brent expressed interest in selling food at
the games.
According to the younger Walker, it's
not his first food-selling venture. His
father, who works with the food industry,
bought a one-gallon can of nacho cheese
sauce home last summer, where Brent
bought some chips and set up a nacho
stand. "I made twenty bucks." he said.
Mrs. Walker smiled fondly at her son.
"He's a real entrepeoeur," she said.
Though technically the game wasn't
over (it was still the fourth quarter and the
Bulldogs were ahead 35-7), Brent had his
eyes once again transfixed on the game.
His mother asked him a question,-but
Brent wasn't listening; he was thinking of
the future, when all eyes would one day
be on him.
