The happy Naked Cowboy

Robert Burck must be a happy man now he’s settled his legal fight against chocolate maker Mars:

Burck, 37, sued Mars after a giant electronic billboard outside the M&M store at his Times Square stomping grounds flashed a blue M&M cavorting in his trademark cowboy hat, boots and tighty whities earlier this year. There was also a mural of a similarly attired yellow M&M in the store.

I saw Burck interviewed on Sky last week when Obama won, perhaps due to his status as a legendary New York cowboy. As the readers of the Post suggest, perhaps he’ll now treat himself to some new clothes as winter approaches.

You can read the full story behind the trademark battle at Jossip - it’s not a look I’d be keen to copy and I’m certain most enthusiastic London PCSOs would soon be escorting you to the nearest lockup.
