I can recall one time when I had 2 Yankee tickets inside an envelope snatched out my back pocket as I was on my way to sell them for $300. I was climbing up the stairs at the train station, get on the platform, check my back pocket and the envelope is gone. That @@$# was sticking out of my back pocket something vicious and there was a gang of high school kids everywhere. %@%% was I thinking.

Almost happened to me.
I was sitting on a table bench, having a beer talking to a friend, and I had literally just taken my phone out of my hoody front pockets and put it in my front denim's pocket like 45seconds ago. As I was sitting and chatting to a friend, a dude came up from behind me and literally grazed me. He came up behind me, and reached into my hoody front pocket with the quickness. The slightest touch. I turned around like WTH? And he ran off...luckily I had just moved things from my hoody pocket. If not I would have been chasin some fool down the street
. Truth be told, if I had my phone in that pocket, and maybe a beer or two more, I definitely wouldn't have felt a thing.
I must say, these pick pockets are amazingly good at what they do. If you even feel them lifting something off of you, it's the softest touch.

honest truth coming outta me right, I've done it before and would consider myself pretty good at it... no assassin's creed type of steez but nicking a few things in my life has been pretty cool.
-Understand that the body has sensors. for example if you put your finger on your eyebrow your eye in general is on alert, first reaction of the eyelashes is to blink even if you do that yourself. that's why the brow and lashes are on the body in the first place.
- so obviously there are butt sensors, crotch senors and only chest sensors for chicks duh... that's why playing open chest was easy to get back in middle school
-like one dude said he got $20 stolen in a packed place your body is going in saying "I know I'm getting touched so there's no alert, even if its dudes accidentally touching me causing 'ayo' moments (cuz that sets off dudes the most lol) can't help it oh well move on" which makes it easy to pick. if not in the club scene and just walking anyone randomly going for your @$@ you turn without hesitation.
-you drink which causes you to lose sensors, picking drunk people is prolly the easiest. my best success
-yeah tighter jeans have stopped a lot of picking. but a lot of womens clothing is pretty open. all pockets open a lot more when the person is sitting down.
-make sure you see what you want instead of just reaching for a pocket and hope for a phone. 1 quick motion is the fastest way, while putting it in your pocket with only one hand while shooting your poker face as if its just a random person turning around to look at you is solid.
Once to give me some practice back in high school I was sitting next to my good friend, she had on the full love pink outfit or at least the sweater which I scoped to have her phone. started a convo which got me to say "you ticklish?" tickled her up and down then in the midst of it all I got my left hand and went to her right pocket, looked down (hand eye cordination is key) snatched the phone and left pocketed it in the matter of 3 seconds while right hand was still tickling her. end of class she left sad cuz she checked for it about 20 minutes later and was gone. Told her I took it during the whole thing and she said she would've never known it was me and called me slick.
I got her while she was sitting down, her body sensors told he I'm getting touched everywhere so her mind is busy while I went in for the pick.

In like 6th grade but I was being dumb, I put the wallet in a pocket on my jeans that was located by my knee so half of the wallet was in plain sight. I assumed it happened after lunch while going up the stairs to class that someone snatched it or it dropped out.
Jokes on them though, all I had in it was 3 or 4 Trini dollars.

It happened to my around Christmas a long time ago by the Macy's on 34th Street... I wanna say maybe 2000 give or take.
I had the North Face coat, not the bubble, the one with the fur on the hoody.
They didn't pick pocket my pants they pick pocketed the coat.
To people who live in NYC you should know about those carts that sell nuts well I used a $20 bill to pay for I believe it was 2-4 sacks I don't remember, but I do remember getting $11 change and I was headed into the Macy's and I was with my boys maybe 2-3 of them and payed for the nuts and I put the money in one of the pockets on the coat... now the coat is pretty big and it has a lot of pockets and I believe I put it in one of the outer pockets because it was so crowded and I was making my way to the revolving doors and this dude walked up on me or by the side of me I'm not sure and I didn't think much of it because it was so crowded and people were bumping into me and each other all over the place.
We start making our way upstairs and I think I went to go check my cell phone for a text, old Nokia with snake game I believe, and I can't find that either but I eventually do and while looking for my phone I can't find the money either and I'm checking all of my pockets and looking around to see if I dropped it and I couldn't find it and then we get to the Polo section and I realize that I got got. I had it hanging out one of the outer pockets in a rush as to not lose any of my boys in all the confusion and then I realized when dude brushed up on me like that he must have just swiped the money.
I wasn't tight that I lost the money I was just like kind of agitated that I got got, but moreso like damn I'm a NY'er and I got got by a street pickpocketer... that sh.. only supposed to happen to the out of towners.
I'm not 100% sure it was dude could have been someone else or I could have just dropped it or something but I do believe it was him.

yall know you could just be dropping your stuff and not necessarily a pick pocketer.
im a good guy so i usually give people a heads up.
but i've seen plenty of people in high traffic places with 20s falling out of their front pocket... wallet hanging on for dear life to their jeans.
and other really bad situations

Dang a lot of paranoid dudes in here. Never heard of someone keeping a wallet in the front pocket.
Some of y'all wearing parachute jeans.
