Naked Cowboy
Robert John Burck (born December 23, 1970), better known as the Naked Cowboy, is an American street performer whose pitch is on New York City's Times Square. He wears only cowboy boots, a hat, and briefs, with a guitar strategically placed to give the illusion of nudity.
On October 6, 2010, Burck formally announced that he was running for President of the United States in the 2012 U.S. election as a candidate representing the U.S. Tea Party movement.〔(October 6, 2010) ("NYC's Naked Cowboy suits up for presidential run" ), Associated Press.

==Background==
Burck was born in Cincinnati and attended Our Lady of the Rosary elementary school in nearby Greenhills, Ohio. He later earned a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Cincinnati. He began busking in December 1997 and first appeared on Venice Beach, Los Angeles.
He is currently best known as a fixture of Times Square in New York City. He made an appearance on January 25, 2009 where he performed at a Leinster Rugby game in Donnybrook, Dublin, Ireland, singing his theme song "I'm the Naked Cowboy" before 18,000 spectators.〔(Joe.ie )〕 In May 2014, Burck switched from his usual briefs to boxer briefs, after being sponsored by Fruit of the Loom.
