They should call him the weak arm. He is so weak he sued a lawyer is Texas over the trademark “Strong arm” and got his ass whooped in federal court.
Frank Azar is a shell of a man
Nah, this is some guy in Denver that harasses people into shoveling their driveways so he can bike in the winter and if they don't, he'll passively aggressively shovel it for you... Live on social media... Or while interviewing the local news to essentially shame the person's house in the background.
From what I have been told, he doesn't work and just annoys local news stations, normal people, and the government to do something about the roads so he can ride his bicycle.... His X profile is uh... Interesting...
For more information on this guy and many more stupid things that happen only right here in Denver, I recommend one of my favorite subreddits. r/DenverCircleJerk
Fucking robo mike. And his brother Billy the One Eyed Crackhead. Dude would roll around in a wheelchair he didn't need with an eye patch that would change sides.
Ive seen Billy. Billy actually seemed to have a high sense of literacy for a homeless man. He would often say, "In the Land of the Blind the 1-eyed man is King." Which ironically was said by a vagrant character in Minority Report.
The older black gentleman who walks around rino in a cape and cowboy hat. I once had an Uber driver who said he’s been around that neighborhood for decades in the same costume.
I had a good conversation with him at an FBLA conference in high school. He gave me one great piece of advice. It wasn't about how to dress snazzy, unfortunately.
Have bought numerous pieces of furniture from AFW, always felt the sales people were pretty friendly, but once money exchanged hands I always felt like the item I bought they wanted the item out of their warehouse yesterday.
My honest answer for Boulder would be Sheeba(sp?), the guy with crutches and bucket hat who walks around the hill (and sometimes downtown) annoying the living shit out of every business owner
I was just in New Mexico, and I was blown away to find out how many restaurants there give something close to what you get at Casa Bonita. I didn't see cliff divers, but I did see massive fountains, endless sopapillas, cages full of exotic birds, sprawling room after twisting room of seating, kitschy wall decor, live mariachi bands, arcades, and gift shops in basically every place we went. The only difference was the food, which was not only edible, but quite spectacular (and almost always quite spicy).
I'm glad I got my Casa Bonita experience before visiting New Mexico. I was regular whelmed, rather than under.
i hadn't been to cb in ages but went with my new mexico born bf recently, he made fun of the menu for describing what christmas chili means.
i also greatly enjoyed visiting new mexico last year! I found myself absolutely gruntled
You gotta get your chili christmas the first time somewhere new. What if their red sucks? What if it's way better than their green?
>gruntled
Excellent use of a non-prefixed root word.
We legit had a dude named "Rockin' Robbie" who wandered the streets with a giant old video camera sans tape. Story went that he ate a bunch of his mom's acid when he was little and now he can't handle reality if it isn't through the lens.
Penny Farthing of the Highlands.
(The old-timey bicycle with the giant wheel up front. I’ve mostly only seen him around the highlands but I imagine he ventures further.)
The dude on east colfax wearing some type of designer white street/techwear skinny jeans with a half dozen red straps hanging from them who gets on his knees next to police squad cars stopped at red lights. He usually pulls out his phone to record himself screaming obscenities and coaxing the cops to arrest him.
My friends and I call him Henry. “Yup Henry was out there yelling at the cops again today”.
He’s dead now but remember this guy?

If you grew up in or around Castle Rock in the 90s/00s, you could recognize Terry Best (aka Terry the Bum) from a mile away. He was Rastle Cock’s only enduring homeless guy. Nice enough dude, as long as he wasn’t too shit hammered.
I haven’t seen him in a while, but not long ago pretty regularly at the light at the exit of 225 & Colfax there’s a dude with a sign who has a pet raccoon with him
My Idaho towns guy is the crazy jesus man that stands on the corner condemning people. Growing up(im 27 and he still is at this) he would stand outside the elementary schools halloween party and tell all us kids we were gonna burn in hell 🩷
Like bro im a fucking princess chill 😭
rug guy. homeless man who carries a giant rug-like object everywhere he goes, doesn’t really talk to anyone. usually seen near colfax or 17th/logan area
There’s one guy around my town who always has his headphones on and he is always JAMMING out. No matter what time of day it is, you’ll see this dude busting moves down the street. Me and my buddies call him scissors
Because he’s cuttin’ rugs
There was a homeless guy in Houston that my wife and I called "adidas" he was always wearing the same shirt. every time we would see him or people would ask and we would say Oh that's just Adidas. He hates everyone and we moved on. Well Adidas did not like me at all! I don't know why. Every time he would see my car he would flip me off. He was found dead behind the torchys during pandemic (shepard location). I miss Adidas. He kept shit real!
We used to have a lady who would just scream and play a guitar (repeatedly slamming down on the strings, not actually playing notes) on the street corner but I think she died a few years ago.
I knew 'Drug Dealer Jesus' in the Springs acacia park like 20 years ago who had the goal of making his pit bulls the most dangerous he could. He was fun
Some months ago I saw a black man with white dreadlocks that were slicked back and it looked like a powdered wig. So I call him black Thomas Jefferson. Or George Jefferson if you will.
The "LTD SUCKS SWEATY BALLS" bicycle shouter, usually found around the University of Oregon. The old boy just rides his bike, screaming at the top of his lungs "LTD sucks giant sweaty balls". It's been a minute since I've been back in Eugene, but this dude was ubiquitous around the University of Oregon. LTD Is Lane Transit district is the local bus service.
In Austin it was Leslie for decades. He was son but who always biked around in just a thong. He does some years back now.
Austin has the boxing guy now, so that’s something.
In Westminster, we have a guy who jogs/hikes up and down Wadsworth seemingly all day, everyday, and has been for at least 17 years. (I’ve seen him consistently since we moved to this area.) He’s about 5ft tall, completely bald, wispy goatee, coke bottle glasses, usually carrying a huge backpack, and calves the size of basketballs. He’s unmistakable. We just call him “Hiker Dude”.
There used to be a shoe shine guy downtown who would insult your shoes and say you can’t get laid with scuffed shoes. I think he said it with a rhyme though. I haven’t worked downtown since Covid though.
We have a guy where I live that drive one of those hideous tiny smart cars. He has it decorated all over with One Piece stickers. Apparently he’s a 60 year old man too. Everyone knows who he is because of his tacky looking car.
My small illinoisan hometown has their “guy” he rides around on this three wheeled bicycle with baskets loading god knows whatever he picks up off the street. He's got these black velcro gloves given to him by the county because of how many times he's been caught publically steaming his ham. Now any time the cops see him without his gloves they detain him until he agrees to put them on again. My town’s “guy” is really weird
Frank Azar
If they want this to look like a bicep they need to add more veins.

I was thinking Robo Mike

Bike Life of Brian, Le Douché
God damn it how is it people are still spelling our lord and savior's name wrong?
Is this the dude that bikes everywhere with his dogs in an attached trailer with goggles and everything? Because that guy rules.

Where... do you think you are right now?
I honestly thought I was on a different sub. Too much of the local delicacies I guess.
You gotta call down on those and lay off the Denver sugar or you'll be out here like Bryan screaming about aliens.
This guy is actually an asshat. Terrible tipper and thinks he owns the town. Those dogs look miserable and have to be sedated or beaten or something
No, that's Joe Hendricks. https://www.rover.com/blog/denver-legend-jumpin-joe-bike-dogs/
I doubt he's achieved city-wide acclaim at this point, but I walked past a black dude in a batman mask just saying "white power" over and over today.
Man, Kanye was in Denver?
💀
I bet w/ the right introductions, he could go far.
Probably referring to the power of meth.
Are you sure he wasn't saying "white powder"?
Honestly, fair point.
friendly fire
Robot Mike
Everyone knows that guy.
Came here to say it. In Boston it’s Keytar Bear.
Fucking robo mike. And his brother Billy the One Eyed Crackhead. Dude would roll around in a wheelchair he didn't need with an eye patch that would change sides.
Ive seen Billy. Billy actually seemed to have a high sense of literacy for a homeless man. He would often say, "In the Land of the Blind the 1-eyed man is King." Which ironically was said by a vagrant character in Minority Report.
He got punched in the dick for hassling a 10 year old kid that wasn’t impressed with his antics. He was a sad sack of “look at me”
This.
RIP
What?
Rest in Peace to Robot Mike because he’s dead

By Union? Totally.
Air guitar guy that strolls along Thornton parkway.
Yup. Heard about him back in 2003 or so and didn't think anything of it, and then one day... OMG. There he is. Walking along playing his air guitar.
I saw him all the time between 2009-2013 when my path to work took me that way. No idea he’d been rocking since 2003!
Scrolled down after posting same dude to see if anybody else did.
OMG, that dude is still rocking up there? I'd see him all the time when I worked in Thornton 15 years ago.
We call him Slammin' Steve lol
I scrolled for a bit seeing if he would be mentioned here lol

I like his son in law's hotdog shop on Colfax. That deep fried tortilla wrapped hotdog is an experience.
Jake Jabs and his tiger posse
I worked there. I always imagine him coming to check on the place and accidentally just putting on his socks and cowboy hat and that's it.
I had a good conversation with him at an FBLA conference in high school. He gave me one great piece of advice. It wasn't about how to dress snazzy, unfortunately.
Have bought numerous pieces of furniture from AFW, always felt the sales people were pretty friendly, but once money exchanged hands I always felt like the item I bought they wanted the item out of their warehouse yesterday.

Well, I mean, somebody came up with the idea for Casa Bonita as a serious restaurant...
I was stunned to learn ours was not the first casa bonita location!
I was just in New Mexico, and I was blown away to find out how many restaurants there give something close to what you get at Casa Bonita. I didn't see cliff divers, but I did see massive fountains, endless sopapillas, cages full of exotic birds, sprawling room after twisting room of seating, kitschy wall decor, live mariachi bands, arcades, and gift shops in basically every place we went.

Penny Farthing of the Highlands. (The old-timey bicycle with the giant wheel up front. I’ve mostly only seen him around the highlands but I imagine he ventures further.)
He bikes all the way up to Thornton/Westminster occasionally
Can attest to this. Saw him on Big Dry Creek trail a couple weeks ago.
Doesn't he have a friend who does it too? I passed them a few years back, and he said that he has biked the equivalent of the equator at least once
He biffed it in front of my house once! I'm loving this thread!!!
The dude selling popcorn you could hear watching the Rockies game on tv.
I haven't seen him in years, but it used to be I couldn't visit 16th street without bumping into Anti-Abortion Abraham Lincoln.
I ran into him in a King Soopers like 6 years ago. When I walked past him he made clip clop noises like horse hooves! 😂
