Thanks Phil,

What a fantastic find!

Not too long ago I was walking around the city streets, when I was accosted by...

A Monster!

More specifically, it was the "Burger Monster"! It looked like a walking hamburger, with a single eye...

The burger monster thrust a menu in my hand, then went on (his? her?) way to "attack" other pedestrians with leaflets...

Of course, it was a man or woman (I couldn't tell which) in a costume, advertising a new restaurant opening.

Here you can kind of see a picture showing kind of what it looked like...

(I have no connection with them.)

Walking placards, and people in costume have long been a way for businesses to get the attention of pedestrians for local advertisers... The "street barker" looks like an interesting "twist" on the idea!

Thanks for sharing that find...
