Tickle Me Elmo

I was walking around NYC this past weekend, when I stumbled upon one of the funniest scenarios I’ve ever seen.

The picture above is of a guy in an Elmo costume, taking a picture with a mom and her two kids.

However, I took this picture about 30 minutes after I saw Elmo getting questioned by the NYPD!

30 minutes before this picture, I walked past a guy defending himself in Spanish to two police officers, while holding the Elmo head at his side. It was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I wanted to get a picture of his face but I was nervous he would rape me. But how often do you see a guy in an Elmo costume getting questioned by the cops?! So here’s the best picture I got:

You can’t really see his head because he was bending over at the time, but I’m pretty sure he had a black rubber dildo in his right hand…OK maybe it was something else.

What could elmo possibly have done? The only thing I can imagine is him whispering “they don’t call me tickle me elmo for nothing” to some poor little nine-year-old.

Either way, I guess they let Elmo off the hook this time. I’ll keep an eye out to see if he’s on the next episode of “How To Catch A Predator”.
