Charging Bull Features Victim Of Wall Street

Photograph from Dealbreaker

Dealbreaker was sent a photograph of an underwear-clad man on the Charging Bull sculpture by Wall Street—the photographer wrote, "I just took this ten minutes ago as I was about to walk into my office...I think it came out pretty well but that's a kid 100% passed out/maybe dead, on the bull, in his briefs. Two news reporters were just pulling up when I snapped this." Naturally, the site's commenters were happy to offer their commentary: "please be a goldman employee please be a goldman employee," "Oh man, that cant be real, thats too funny. Im sure the NYPD got a good laugh out of this one. Sad thing is, he will be working for Geithner in like 4 years," and a debate over whether it's an alum of Loomis Chaffee, Kent or Delbarton. Hopefully there's a cock-and-bull story that explains it all.

Charging Bull hijinks are not unusual—last fall, the bull's balls were painted blue.

    "Dear Dealbreaker, I just took this ten minutes ago as I was about to walk into my office...I think it came out pretty well but that's a kid 100% passed out/maybe dead, on the bull, in his briefs. Instead of calling 911 or checking to make sure the kid had a pulse/wasn't choking on his own vomit, I figured I'd just send this picture along for everyone to laugh at."



    Look, kid's just passed out drunk, I'm all for laughing at his drunk ass, but you fucking check on him or call an ambulance if it's occured to you that he might be seriously not well. What a douchebag.

    Ha, I agree. The "maybe dead" part is just too rich.
