A 100,000 fur coat is not even close to being expensive when it comes to fur coats. Especially not at the length in the photo, a 100k might have been a steal.

"Who's that in the fur coat?"
"That piece of shyt? It looks like a couple of cats, maybe a possum sewn together. It's cheap. Who cares?"
"But, he's black..."

"We need an ID in section 12a, black male large grey coat."

They sell them today. What’s the price?

Is this the coat that got him jammed?

He caught attention because of the seats, not because of the outfit. This was the Fight of the Century. Gotta figure that every mobster, drug dealer, numbers runner, and pimp of note from the Northeast was there . And many of them wereflashing jewels and expensive outfits.

Pure hate......he was so out of reality giddy when they showed them in the video about catching him.......like weirdly happy about it

So according to the post, this coat he wore to a Muhammad Ali fight cost $100,000.

If you believe inflation calculators, that comes out to nearly $760,000 in 2023. For a coat.

A coat.

Everyone in this pic was smoking. These days it’s odd to see someone smoking in public.
