They knew but wanted to reward his ingenuity

There's a scene in Top Secret like that. It stops being fun once the bull joins in though.

Dude in bull costume, giggling

Nah, the bull did all his own stunts:

The trick is to stay soft

Was a Man Named Carl Twinly Arrested For Pretending to be a Cow? | Snopes.com https://share.google/Ydqf8WoPmBFpJYwrU

Actual Link: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/carl-twinly-cow-arrest/

The story about "Carl Twinly" is a work of fiction. However, the mugshot shown above is real. It was taken in 2008 and shows a woman who was arrested in Middleton, Ohio. According to Fox 19, she had been hired to dress up as a cow to promote a local haunted trail. She was arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct after she allegedly got drunk, chased some children, and interrupted traffic.

Fox 19 reported: "A Middletown woman is behind bars, charged with disorderly conduct after she was arrested while wearing a cow suit ... Police say Michelle Allen was getting in the way of traffic and chasing children while wearing her cow suit. She's also accused of urinating on a neighbor's front porch."

The weirdest thing about this to me is “promote a local haunted trail.” How shitty and not-haunted is your haunted trail that you need someone in a cow suit to promote it?

The rest of it is a no brainer. Obviously if I’m in a cow suit, I’m getting drunk and pissing on your porch. Nothing weird about that.

[–] oyfrog@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Maybe it's haunted by a drunk cow?
