Zip Code man Rocks!

During the break, we got a treat from one of Boulder's living treasures: Zip Code Man.

If you haven't seen him before, head to Boulder and find him on the Pearl Street Mall.  Take 20 minutes and stop and watch his show.  He's awesome.

I can't remember his name, but I actually first saw him taking Systema at Scornavacco Karate in Longmont. Seems like a great guy to me! Just don't try to take his money.

I live about a half hour outside of Boulder Colorado and I have seen "The Zip Code Man" on quite a few occasions on Pearl Street. I also just happen to catch his crew with him one day a couple blocks away from where he does his act. By his crew I am referring to the two other men with laptop computers that sit quietly in nearby sitting areas with ear pieces listening to him repeat the zip codes outloud so they can then use WIFI internet to zero in on where the zip code locations are. So by the tail end of the act, they retrieve the zip codes and relay those locations to him with a tid bit of extra info to make the unsuspecting sucker in the audience think that he has actually passed through that place while on his worldly travels.

He wears a very small ear piece and a hidden microphone to communicate with his crew. I am not making this up, I really did see his two helpers watching his pile of crap one afternoon while he was off somewhere relieving himself. They were careful not to let all the tourists on Pearl Street see the three of them sitting together, but I decided to stick around and watch the act come together. When the "Zip Code Conman" returned to gather his junk, him and his two associates had a brief chat and they split up. The two men with the laptops went into quiet sitting areas on either side of Pearl Street and they were careful to sit in positions where random people could not see the computer screens. They both had very visible ear pieces on, I assume communicating with "The Zip Code Conman's" microphone. As soon as he finishes his act and takes a break, the two guys with the laptops instantly stop using the computers and begin people watching. As soon as the next act starts, they are right back glued to their computer screens.

Simple fact, don't believe everything you see. One thing is definite, "The Zip Code Conman" and his crew make a nice load of cash on a summer evening when Pearl Street is crowded. Lots of stupid people give that clown a tip because they are foolish enough to believe that guys bullshit. One nitwit woman actually dropped that guy a $10 bill. RETARD!!!!!!

A word of advice, if you see that conman on the streets, don't give him a dime, don't watch his silly side show and tell him to get a real job instead of being a thief.
