Cash Cab Set on Fire By Angry Rioters
In a case of mistaken identity, rioters set the Cash Cab ablaze after believing host Ben Bailey was actually bad cop Derek Chauvin.
Cash Cab is a TV show that takes place in an actual taxicab in NYC. Host Ben Bailey picks up unsuspecting passengers and as he drives them to their destination, he asks them trivia questions for money.
Ben Bailey and the crew were filming a new episode of Cash Cab featuring celebrities from the reality show “Real Housewives”, when they ended up smack dab in the middle of a riot. Rioters noticed Ben Bailey, who has a striking resemblance to Derek Chauvin and yelled “there he is get him.”
Ben, Housewife Vicki Gunvalson, Housewife Lisa Rinna and flamboyant TV Personality Ross Mathews ran for their lives as the cab was set ablaze. Ross fought the mob off with his parasol and a Glock 19 handgun that he always carries with him, while the others sought safety in an abandoned building.
Mathews led the others to the rooftop and barricaded the door. Ross then radioed his buddy Andy Cohen who rescued them by helicopter in a pre dawn raid. “OMG it was so exciting” giggled Ross. “I lit up like 15 of those sumbitches. Good thing I came in hot. I am always strapped. Don’t let the high voice fool ya. Dont F*ck with Ross The Boss!”
