Where did they get the money for Doughboy's BBQ?

There was a lot of meat there... Did food stamps buy all that?

Probably drug money.

Yeah, pretty sure it was shown that Doughboy was a drug dealer.

The whole neighborhood contributed, possibly. Or they had been saving money for some time.

Pretty sure they pooled their food stamps and probably hit up a food bank or a church pantry for some extras.

They live in a house with a big backyard; why would you think they couldn't afford food for a BBQ? (Which is probably the least expensive food in the grocery store).

There is more $$$ in the ghetto than in ANY other neighborhood.

Wow. Is your world really that small that you innocently ask this, or do you really know better and are being a sarcastic jerk just for kicks?

It looked like a pot luck so many people probably brought something and contributed. They pooled their food stamps and had a party.

You kidding me? A BBQ is the most economical meal ever. You're saying some sausages and onions are going to break the bank? tfoh
