Naked Cowboy Goes Home, Upsets Local

phparkv6NPM.jpg Don't tell the Naked Cowboy to "go back to Ohio," because someone in his hometown of Greenhills doesn't want him back. Reportedly a mayoral candidate there, Pat Andwan, is urging city council members to protest Robert Burck's performance at the Greenhills Summer Festival tomorrow, saying "it's an inappropriate venue for a man who wears only underwear." She called his behavior both "indecent" and "deviant." But the current Mayor, Oscar Hoffman, told the Cincinnati Enquirer, "I have no problem with the Naked Cowboy. Nobody on council has a problem with it. He doesn't do anything immoral. It's just a catchy name." Burck plans to go on with the show as planned; he added that Andwan was a "lunatic," but from his experience he's also "aware there are people out there who are not underwear-friendly."

    Seems to me in another 10 years or so, he'll be the poster boy for malignant melanoma.

  • NannyState

    The irony of which that it might emerge in a counter-intuitive location...

  • nomnomnom

    Why not just say that the dude is super annoying and a menace to society. I would say that's more accurate than the "indecent" and "deviant" tags.

  • Think2wice

    He might make the virginal daughters of Greenhills think lusty and lascivious thoughts.

    Methinks Pat "Family Values" Andwan might have some kinky secrets of his own.

    That's 'cause the mayoral candidate is in loooove with Mr. Naked.

  • felixthecat2

    I can't believe he does well with this gig, but Ohio Mayor needs to removed the stick in his butt.

  • The Edge

    It's a mayoral candidate bitching, not the mayor.

    Did you even read beyond the headline?

  • felixthecat2

    The statement still holds, get over yourself and stop obsessing over me, I am so not interested in you. LOL

  • dr zippy

    The mayor in Ohio is perfectly okay with the Naked Cowboy performing at their festival. Thus your statement was completely wrong.
