The MTA is going B.I.G. with limited edition Biggie MetroCards in Brooklyn
The cards will be made available starting this Saturday, May 21st, in honor of what would have been Biggie's 50th birthday. They will only be available at four subway stations near his old Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood: Lafayette Avenue, both Clinton – Washington Ave. stations, and Atlantic Ave. – Barclays Center.
An MTA spokesperson told Gothamist there will only be 50,000 commemorative Biggie MetroCards released at the four stations. They're going to be randomly loaded into the MetroCard vending machines and "customers are not guaranteed" to get one, so you may have to try your luck a few times to snag one.
