Elmo Arrested

[lodirulz]

A man impersonating the "Sesame Street" character Elmo, who for years has hassled tourists for money in New York City's Central Park Zoo, was taken away in an ambulance on Sunday after security guards were called, the Daily News reported.

The man, said to be emotionally disturbed, reportedly yelled racial insults and other obscenities when he was kicked out of the park.

The man, whose identity was not reported, had pestered tourists to pose for pictures with him.

It's truly a sad day in 1-2-3 Sesame Street.

There's a curiously disproportionate number of Elmos in Manhattan. I remember seeing no less than three of them in varying degrees of costume quality one night in Times Square.

I thought this was in Vegas. Months ago when I was there, I saw a bunch of people dressed as Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh.

I read about that. Actors trying to catch a break put on outfits and hope people will get a picture made with them and give them a tip.
