Say it isn't so, Cookie Monster

Man cited for disorderly conduct for poking "Sesame" character

Oh wait, Tinky-Winky is a Teletubbie, not a Sesame Street character.

People really can be rude to costumed characters.

I made Sylvester and Tweety costumes for my daughter and her friend one time ... they wore them in the local Christmas parade and were poked, punched, shoved
and harassed...til my daughter (Sylvester) shoved a big kid right back. He was shocked!

This is Telly:

I guess he thought it was some sort of life-sized Tickle Me Elmo spinoff. ;o)

"OOOFF!! Telly's not ticklish there!"

Mascot abuse is becoming a big problem in this country. The San Diego Chicken has been threatened. There was that giant Sausage thing in Milwaukee that the ball player hit with a bat, the Cookie Monster attack, and now this. I know many people who have harbored homicidal thoughts toward "Rowdy", that stupid idiot with the big foam cowboy hat at Dallas Cowboy games. Even when I was a teenager it was a problem. I was hired to dress up in a clown suit and try to wave people in to a hamburger joint on a busy street one Saturday. Every old fart over the age of forty shot me the finger as he drove by.

I say it is time for a new civil rights law to protect Costumed Characters. It should be a Hate Crime to abuse, threaten or harass a Costumed Character, regardless of color, species, animation status, or studio affiliation. Why can't we just all get along?

All the guy Cruz had to do was swing at "Telly's" head with a baseball bat and knock him down. That would guaranteed no charges. In fact, the person in the "Telly" costume would have held a press conference afterwards and giggled that there was no harm and no foul. Hey, it worked in Milwaukee, didn't it?

Which one is the gay muppet with AIDS?

And what's up with a frog dating a pig? That smacks of beastiality. Gonzo chasing chickens is one thing. He's arguably a chicken himself. But a frog and a pig knockin' boots?!? That's SICK!

THis kind of behavior needs to be stopped now before it escalates into character assasination.

People who attack these theme park workers are lowlifes. They should take a branding iron- put a scarlet L on his forehead.
