Is it odd that an ice cream truck is operating at 9 at night?

Two or three times a week I hear the neighborhood ice cream truck(actually an 80'd model conversion van) playing its melody to attract customers. Isn't that an odd time of day for an ice cream truck to operate?Is it odd that an ice cream truck is operating at 9 at night?
um yes, most lil kids should be in bed by thenIs it odd that an ice cream truck is operating at 9 at night?
I'd watch out for that.... he's probably some freaky guy looking for little kids to munch on. Unless he is doing this twice or three times a day and it's usually earlier than 9:00pm, I wouldn't step close if I were you.
If you know the company name this guy drives for, you could call them and ask why he's driving around so late at night. 9:00 is usually bed time for a lot of kids. (Even my 15 year-old goes to bed at 9:00)





If they are unaware of his activities, you will have alerted them to something potentially dangerous. If they know or just don't care, you could contact the police, or organize a crime watch. If he knows that people don't want him around, he'll have to leave. And if he's dealing drugs, as was hinted at, you definitely want him gone.
get his tag number; go out and buy an ice cream; chat him up and get a good description ; call the police. that is suspious behavior. could be a robber; some kind of a predator casing the neigborhood...... always listen to your instinct.Call cops complain about the noise, he makes you uneasy; kids are in bed; express concern he may be a robber or worse a predatoor,


Police need your help in keeping u safe. maybe form a neigborhood watch committie...........
Yes that does sound a little odd...
i would watch this guy,i am to where i don't trust anybody when it comes to our children.that would be a perfect cover for a sex offender.not saying he's one but we got to take care of the little ones.
Tho some of the answers have merit--I would just suggest that you think about this:


Here in Fla, it isn't even dark until well after 8--and a lot of people sit outside in the evening--and the kids are in the street still at that time because there is no school during the summer, so the ice cream guy makes a last round about that time on weekends.





I guarantee you that 15 year olds aren't in bed by nine here, they're still at the mall--and the small kids can hear an ice cream truck from five miles away--but they can't hear their moms calling them inside--so, even if their inside, they're already nagging for ice cream in advance of the truck's arrival.





Regardless, depending on your neighborhood--it could seem suspicious. If you are very concerned, contact your local police and ask them to visit your neighborhood around the time the truck comes through to see if it is on the up and up. They know what questions to ask and will check for whether or not this guy has a license to operate.
i would think so! ussaly they r only around during lunch time-a little after dinner like 7 or 8 pm.
vanity chick is right he'll prob wake them up tho with that demented music
if you are really suspicious just call the police and ask them to drive thru the area when he comes around at night.
Yes...it seems odd.
Ok. The reason why you hear the ice cream truck so late at night, is because thats when the people deal illegal drugs. The ice cream noise is to fool the cops into thinking that is a normal truck. It is one of the diversions that drug dealers use to try and keep the cops away from them. It is still supposedly a good diversion in their thoughts, but it never works.
as hot as it's been, no
definately!! I would stay away from that truck. he could be a kidnapper or something. if you baby-sit, dont let the kids near the truck. ya know... his ice cream could be poison... not good!!! but yes it is an abnormal time.
Its probably an imposter who doesn't have any ice cream, but has other intentions...
Its Big Worm! You better have his money smokey!
i dont think its too odd but it depends on when the sun goes down. i'm 23 and i still go running out to the ice cream truck when it goes by. besides i think some drivers leave their music going on the way home hoping to make a couple extra bucks
We have the same problem.I can assure you it's not just ice cream their selling.Some of them are legit about selling their ice cream but at that time,I don't think so.Their peddling other products without any dairy in it( if you know what i mean)Lol
this is his own truck %26amp; maybe this is his only means of income so he really don't have a particular time to sale his ice cream %26amp; its just not for kids adults do buy ice cream for them selfs too
maybe he gets drunk and drives around at night. or maybe that's his only mode of transportation and since there's no radio he has to listen to pop goes the weasel.
Yes, and they have been known to deal in that way, if you get my drift
