00:00Where am I?
00:01The Hamptons?
00:02The Bahamas?
00:03Hawaii?
00:03No.
00:04I'm in Queens.
00:07I'm gonna show you guys how you can go to the beach without breaking the bank,
00:11and also without having to leave the five boroughs.
00:13And also how to meet hot men.
00:16Hey guys, this is Awkwafina.
00:18Welcome to New York.
00:19This is Ballin' on a Budget.
00:22Taking your private jet to your private island isn't the only way to party at the beach.
00:30Take the Rockaway Beach Bus and relive the worst part of your childhood having to fight for the best seat
00:34on the bus.
00:35Hop on board for a measly $15.
00:38So allow me and my pal Effie to take you to the best beach ever, the Rockaways.
00:44The world is ours, Effie.
00:46I've only been to the beach once in my life.
00:48It wasn't really a beach, it was more of an old gas station.
00:52We got a live one.
00:54Anyone know how to freestyle to a police scanner?
00:57I'm gonna toss a word.
00:58Let's rhyme it around, okay?
01:01Sarcophagus.
01:03You know what this bus needs?
01:05A dance party!
01:07Let me hear it!
01:07Hey ladies!
01:10What a beautiful beer on Queens is.
01:12I love it.
01:19Watch as I dazzle these surfer bros with my slang.
01:22Catching some rays, all right!
01:26Looking like some surfer dudes.
01:28Thinking about doing a, maybe doing a surfing lesson.
01:30You guys down?
01:31You guys in for a surfing lesson?
01:32Maybe we could barrel out a little bit.
01:33Getting that white water wash, you know?
01:35Eat a conch.
01:38Going out?
01:38I'm not trying to stand up.
01:40Hop up.
01:41Where are two feet?
01:44I'm a water bird.
01:45Like a pelican, etc.
01:49Can we get in the water?
02:04Little tip from Beyonce.
02:05Everybody is hot or wet.
02:10Did you know you can even make money at the beach?
02:13Just ask my new pal, Hank.
02:15Metal detectors aren't just for creepy old dudes anymore.
02:18They're for creepy young ones, too.
02:25Handcuffs.
02:25Just what Hank was looking for.
02:36One day, Effie, all this will be ours.
02:43Probably not, but, you know.
02:45Maybe we can come here on winter day.
02:48Naps are free anywhere, but they're especially right on the beach
02:51where you can soak in the rays.
02:53Cut, cut, cut.
02:54I would play the trumpet, and I would just get these horrific sores on my mouth.
02:59I guess he's some kind of rancher or something like that.
03:01You're a good listener, Effie.
03:02I think that's why we get along so well.
03:04But I was just like, you know, am I in to see Mon de Beauvoir?
03:10Emmy!
03:12She'll come back.
03:13She'll come back.
03:13I'll just nap, get a tan.
03:20Thanks to the Rockway Beach Bus, you can definitely summer in the city
03:24without leaving the city.
03:25You know what I mean?
03:27It's a good day.
03:28Feels really good to be alive.
03:30Real good.
03:31It's a good day.
03:32Not even though I can't go back.
03:32That's why I really have a great idea.
03:33I'm not sure, I'm very sure.
03:33I Christopoulos.
03:34I'm pureت on the night.
03:34It's all over the night.
