Game slams Wildwood saggy-pants ban as 'racist,' will pay fines for first five ticketed!


Game has got your back ... side.
Days after New Jersey resort town Wildwood passed a law banning saggy pants on its boardwalk, the RoleyBoyz CEO slammed the legislation as "racist" and promised to pick up the tab for the first five people ticketed.
In an interview with TMZ, Game compared the law, passed Wednesday that imposes a $25 fine for first offenders and up to $200 for repeat offenders, to "slave days" and encouraged people to openly flout the law.
"N***** should sag down to their socks out there. They trying to get people to not sag, please. Can’t tell people how to wear their f***ing clothes. What time are we in? This ain't the f***ing slave days. F*** that."
Wildwood Mayor Ernest Troiano Jr. defended the law to the Associated Press, and no one at Wednesday's meeting spoke up against it.
"This is just adding a little bit of decency to our town," he said. "It's amazing — and this is a pun — how far decency has fallen through the cracks."
The law is the latest attempt by the Southern New Jersey town to enforce modesty. Bathing suits for both sexes are already banned on the boardwalk, unless the bikinis and swim trunks are covered up by other clothes.
Rapper Bizzy Bone from Bone Thugs-n-Harmony also railed against the Wildwood sag ban, telling TMZ, "Are they talking about black people? How can they do that? This is racist and ridiculous."
Several Wildwood residents voiced their support for the measure at Wednesday's meeting.
"It's long overdue," said Mary Erceg. "People who choose to dress like that offend any person. There has to be some common standard of decency. It offends all of us."
Authorities in suburbs of New Orleans, Chicago, Atlanta, Detroit, Miami and Jacksonville, Fla., are among those who have passed laws banning overly droopy pants.
