Did you have a paper route when you were younger?
If so, do you have any interesting stories to share?

Yes,just one time when I replaced another boy who had gone on holidays.There was a big upsurge in my sales at the time,late 1963 - not because of me,but it was the week following JFK's assassination ; demand for papers stayed high even as the story started to drop away from the headlines here in Australia.

@craig7 Many people here in the US bought extra papers to save them here in the US. Kennedy Assassination newspapers are very common to this day.
