Vendors sell Jackson mementos

Outside of the Staples Center, it resembles more of a mall than a funeral as sellers hawk different things in memorializing Michael Jackson.

Vendors are selling t-shirts with the late singer’s face, buttons that say “rest in peace,” flowers, and black arm bands as a nod to Jackson’s trademark wrist band.

Since only ticket holders are only allowed near the Staples Center, where the memorial will be held, sellers are forced outside the perimeter where funeral goers are waiting.
