shit, i remember when Vanilla Ice was the man, The concerts he had cost $50 bucks a ticket, and they were sold out in hours.

Now he has concerts at local bars, and tickets cost $5 to see him.

One of my friends had him at their fraternatity party to do a private convert for only $5k. And he even smoked weed with them all.

It must be hard when you are on top of the world, then it crashes down on you, and you go from making 50-100k a concert playing in packed arena's to going to fraternity parties making 1/10 of what you originally made. Not to mention the fact that the reason you are at the fraternity party is so people can make fun of you.

Not to mention going bankrupt. I remember watching him on the lifestles of the rich and famous, and how he had a mansion, a Lamborghini that they only made 8 in the world, a collection of bikes, etc...

Now he works a bike shop in Florida, doing small concerts.

It has to be a blow on your ego.
