A costumed character in Herald Square in New York
A costumed character in Herald Square in New York on Saturday, March 8, 2013. The "actors", which are mostly in Times Square, pose for photographs with tourists asking for tips as renumeration. Recently a number of them have been embroiled in controversy for groping and punching women and anti-semitic ranting. Otherwise they just aggressively come up to people soliciting photos.
