Only in New York, I tell you, and right on time for a much needed smile. As I was snapping the pic, a woman about my size asked if I would like a ride in one of the "bull taxis," compliments of the Professional Bull Riders' Association. They are promoting their triumphant return to Madison Square Garden this month by dressing five NYC taxis up as bulls (you can't really see the horns in the picture, but there are horns as wide as the cab where the "on duty" light usually is) and ferrying folks around, free of charge, anywhere in Manhattan. Free! My associate and I quickly decided we were game and hopped in for a very nice (and speedy) ride uptown. It made my day!

Now THERE'S something you don't see everyday.
that's awesome...& lucky! what are the odds if only 5 got dressed up? :) Since you're that lucky, maybe you'll be spotted by the cash cab one day for a ride where it's not only free but you can WIN money :)
Only you would have found that! (Your phone takes much better pictues than mine!)
The Universe shall provide. Usually in unexpected ways. Especially in New York.
Now that is funny! I would have stopped dead in my tracks too...
Thank God for camera phones! - albeit, I don't have one :)
I am SO jealous!!!!
