80 bucks?

Sorry, I was simply too young when I saw this. Is the tow man laughing because 80 bucks is a lot or a little to get the car back?

The tow truck driver is laughing because it's not a lot of money. (That's why he drops the car so suddenly)

$80 in 1988 would be the equivalent of $157 today.

Yea that part didn't make much sense to me...$80 was a good amount of bribe money. Toss in another twenty and dude could've bought himself a Nintendo Entertainment System!

I remember getting a short tow around that time, and it cost me $50.00.
