There is a pants-less Mike Pence look-alike in Times Square
Source: Washington Post
Move over, all you Elmos and Power Rangers — there’s a new Times Square character. Meet “Mike Hot-Pence,” a guy who looks an awful lot like the Vice President-elect, and dresses like him, too .?.?. at least from the waist up.
Below the conservative navy blazer and tie that could have been filched from the actual Mike Pence’s closet, Mike Hot-Pence sports some very un-vice-presidential skimpy short shorts.
Like so many of the other costumed creatures in the touristy Manhattan hub, he’s looking for donations. But unlike most of the competition, the change Mike Hot-Pence busks is going to nonprofit groups.

According to his Twitter feed, he’s been collecting money for organizations such as Planned Parenthood and the Natural Resources Defense Council. His hashtag? #activismishot.
Asked if he had anything he’d like to share with the real, pants-wearing Mike Pence, Pannell quipped, “You have to represent all people, not just the ones that look like you. And me.”
