Here are the list of questions:
1. Which stand is our main character situated?
2. What is the name of the other Air Max shown in the rack of sneakers?
3. What was the last year in which PSG won a trophy?
Answers can be sent to airmaxpsg@lamjc.com. Winners will be chosen and revealed on June 29th via the LaMJC website. LaMJC cannot provide transportation to Paris for the winners.

Gun-inspired label Rogue Status has teamed up with the people at Leilow to produce this t-shirt for summer. The shirt is inspired by the 1988 track “Straight Outta’ Compton” which appeared on the double platinum N.W.A. album of the same name. This album to many was considered one of the all-time greatest rap albums ever. The front print features the lyric “Leilow Creep Awhile…” which leads to the back and finishes it off with “When I See A Punk Pass I Smile”. The shirt is available in purple, black or green and has already debuted at Leilow. Other Rogue Status accounts will see delivery in the near future.
