Legally speaking, it’s sexual assault. Someone tried to rip the tighty-whities right off of Times Square’s Naked Cowboy over the weekend. Video posted on social media shows a prankster run up and basically pants the guy in an apparent attempt to make him live up to his name.
YouTuber Elad Eliahu, 27, who posted the footage on Twitter said, “One of these guys in the crowd just ran up and tore at the Naked Cowboys underwear and then yelled ‘Now you’re naked.’” The Naked Cowboy, whose real name is Robert Burck said, “I saw him out of the corner of my eye. He wanted to just rip my underwear off and I didn’t want my wiener flipping around. It scraped the hell out of my knee.”
The stunt came as people celebrated Joe Biden’s election victory over President Trump. The Naked Cowboy is an avowed Trump supporter, but the pantser’s politics were unclear.
