Naked Cowboy Running for NYC Mayor

NEW YORK - The Naked Cowboy of Times Square says he's dropping out of the race for mayor of New York City.

Robert Burck is a tourist attraction known for strumming his guitar in the square while wearing only white briefs, boots and a cowboy hat. He entered the mayoral race in July with the slogan, "Nobody has done more with less."

But now he says he's had enough of the red tape that goes with a mayoral run.

He says the last straw came when the city's Conflicts of Interest Board fined him $250 for failing to file a required financial disclosure form.

Burck says the only way to be taken seriously is to appear in a suit and tie.

That's too bad. At least he already has a good gig. :cool2:
 
Yeah, but I don't recall either one of them playing guitar in their tighty whities on a street corner.:giggle:
 
but we did have a president who played the sax while his intern played a number on his skin flute... :giggle:

Really? I hadn't ever heard the part about the sax.:giggle: She must not have been very good, or he wouldn't have been able to concentrate on cracking out a tune.
